Are You Serious? The World's Strangest Records

Some of the world’s neatest and weirdest world records. You will be blown away by what you read, and will be begging for more.

  1. Worlds Largest Monster Truck


  2. Bigfoot, the world's largest monster truck was made by Bob and Marilyn Chandler of St. Louis, Missouri in 1986. Bigfoot was made for one reason and one reason only, for shear destruction and to handle 10 foot tall Firewall Tundra Tires. These mammoth tires were originally used by the U.S .Army on an Alaskan land train in the 1950s. Today Bigfoot travels all around the U.S. and leaves one giant path of destruction in its tracks.

  3. World's Speediest Couch


  4. This one of a kind sofa is actually a street legal 82 mph licensed vehicle. It is powered by a mid-mounted, unleashed A-series Mini engine and delivers a pretty large amount of horsepower. This couch comes fully equipped with leopard skin upholstery, a pizza pan steering wheel, a pop can brake, and even a candy bar gear and throttle system. This is one dream machine for any of you coach potatoes out there. It is only missing one thing, a plasma screen TV.

  5. Farthest Midget Tossed


  6. Midget tossing is definitely the most unusual so called sport I have ever heard of. The longest toss ever recorded was in 2002s British Dwarf Tossing Championship. In the tournament a man named Jimmy Leonard tossed the midget Lenny the Giant 11 feet and 5 inches. Now that is one amazing record!

  7. Biggest Horned Animal


  8. This animal is a Watusi Steer named Lurch and has the record for the world's largest horns. These massive horns were recently measured at over 7 ft long and 37.5 inches around. His horns are still growing and may eventually reach over 10 feet.

  9. Tallest Lego Structure


  10. The record for The Tallest Lego Structure was set in February 2005, in a Legoland in Carlsbad, California. This record was recorded at the height of 92 feet 6 inches and took 12,000 people more then 450,000 bricks to fully complete the structure. This project took more then 5 days to complete and is still the record holder today.

  11. Head Balancing


  12. A man named John Evans has a very unique talent. His one of a kind talent is balancing heavy objects on his head. To this date John holds over 30 world records all having to do with balancing objects on his cranium. What John does is very dangerous. He puts his life on the line just tfor entertainment. He is crazy.

  13. Tallest Bicycle


  14. The World's Tallest Bicycle was made and ridden by a man named Terry Goertzen. The total height of the bike was 18ft 5 in. His obsession with the bike all started after receiving a welding kit from his wife for Christmas. This simple deed of buying him a welding kit sparked the core idea of building the tallest bike.

  15. Largest Snowman


  16. This Huge Snowman named Angus is the World's Tallest Snowman. Angus was built in 1999 in Bethel, Maine and to this date has been the largest snowman ever built. Built by thousands of people Angus had the height of 113 feet 12 inches and had the weight of 9,000,000Ibs of snow. He was a giant mammoth and I bet if we really wanted to we could have gone sledding down him.
