Weird World Records

Top Twenty Craziest World Records as Recorded by Guinness and Other Resources

I just love weird stuff. Weird facts have always been interesting to me. I don't think that I'd want to go through life without knowing that the world's largest bra measures 78 feet 8 inches. That is huge. Well, I don't want to bore you too much with the intro so let me get to the records. I have compiled a list of twenty of my favorite weird world records. I hope you enjoy them. If you are looking for a little bit of fun go ahead and try breaking one. Good luck!
