Synopsis
The justifiably famous Guinness record book once again delights and fascinates with its listings of the biggest (and smallest), longest (and shortest), etc. Organized around major topic areas such as the body, nature, and entertainment, this 2006 annual volume has a graphically rich and innovative format, with gatefold pages and a page of Guinness cards that collectors can tear out. We can find out that the record for the number of straws in one's mouth at the same time is 258, held by Marco Hort of Switzerland (he had to hold them there for ten seconds to break the record). The book is especially strong, and especially interesting, in the realm of entertainment, and includes the new record held by Gwen Stefani for "biggest-selling download single in a week in the USA" for "Hollaback Girl": 58,500 downloads.
