200m

The unbelievable short distance sprinter Usian Bolt broke two of the World Records with the highest prestige in althetics. In the 1996 atlanta Olympics, Michael Johnson smashed the world record for the 200 metres mens sprint ,with a time that people considered unbeatable (19.32).

100m

In the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Usian Bolt broke that record with an increadible time of 19.30.  In that same Olympics he also smashed the world record for the mens 100 metres with a time of 9.69 . In the 100 metres race it seemed as if he was almost strolling across the line and many people think that he could have achieved a far faster time if he really gave it his all.

World record holder for 200m and 100m mens sprint.

Longest skateboard jump!

Largest snake in captivity

The world record for the largest snake in captivity is 48.8 feet or nearly 15 metres. This huge animal weights nearly half a ton. This Reticulated python was caught in indonesia and is said to eat 3-4 dog’s per month, but could swallow something as big as a cow! 15 metres is about the same as 8-9 men lying down in a row! However amazingly this creature still weighs less than the worlds fattest man.

Enjoy!

Worlds most tattooed human.

MOST TATTOOED PERSON

The ultimate in multi-layered tattooing is represented by the chainsaw juggling, unicycling, sword-swallowing Lucky Diamond Rich (Australia, born New Zealand), who has spent over 1,000 hours having his body modified by hundreds of tattoo artists. He began by having a full collection of colourful designs from around the world tattooed over his entire body. But not content with stopping there, Lucky next opted for a 100% covering of black ink, including eyelids, the delicate skin between the toes, down into the ears, and even his gums. He is now being tattooed with white designs on top of the black, and coloured designs on top of the white!

This site has only just started so there will not be much on it yet but i will update it very very soon!!! The site will be all about cool world records and funny record attempts!!!
