We Have a New Guinness World Record

I’ve always wanted to set a Guinness World Record, but have never figured out which one I should go for. So every time I see a new record being set, I always wonder if I could have done that.

The BBC reports that a Marine recently set a new Guinness World Record for planking. I KNOW I could never challenge that one. I’ve also seen a new Guinness World Record set recently when Steve Ruppel watched the Brie Larson film, Captain Marvel, a total of 116 times, which saw him shut away in the movie theater for more than 14,000 minutes. That one I could have had a chance at.

So what about speed eating a burrito? I never even knew there was a record for that, but there is. Leah Shutkever of the UK has broken her old burrito-eating record of 44.20 seconds. Shutkever’s new record, just verified by Guinness, is 35.26 seconds. That’s pretty fast for sure. Leah holds several speed eating world records to which I’m sure her parents are very proud. Speed eating a burrito, welp, she owns that record too.

I wonder if there is a record for driving around a parking lot looking for the perfect spot to park. If so, I think I could probably own that record.
