Furthest Throw of a Person

Juha Rasanen of Finland set the record for the furthest throw of a person in Madrid in 2006. Unfortunately there are no subtitles on this clip, but you can watch Rasanen’s throws at 3:32, 4:41 and 5:56. I feel sorry for the guy that’s being thrown, but I guess it’s cool that he got to be a part of a record-setting throw.

Furthest Under Ice Swim

Dutchman Wim Hof is literally a human iceman. He swam 57.5 meters under sub-zero ice-cold water wearing only swim trunks and goggles. Hof keeps from freezing because he has perfected an ancient form of yoga called inner fire, which allows him to keep his temperature even. He still looks pretty cold when he gets out of the water though.

World’s Tallest Man

Check out the world’s tallest man in the video below. Sultan KÃsen of Turkey measured in at a staggering 8 feet 1 inch. He recently took the record from Xi Shun of China, who measures 7 feet 8.95 inches. KÃsen also has the world’s largest hands and the world’s largest feet, making him a triple-Guinness World Record holder!

Largest Department Store

The coastal city of Busan in South Korea has a prestigous world record to sit proudly alongside its beautiful beaches. The brand-new Shinsengae Centumcity Department Store is now officially recognized by Guinness World Records™ as the largest department store in the world.

 

The architecturally impressive building has a huge 293,905 m² (3,163,567 ft²) of retail space. This beats the previous record holder, the famous Macy's store in New York City, by over 95,000 m² (1,022,571 ft²).

The Shinsegae structure contains floor upon floor of designer names representing everything from fashion to books and from kitchenware to toys. It also contains a beautiful spa, a relaxing roof garden and an impressive 60-tee golf driving range.

Guinness World Records Adjudicator Michael Whitty attended an official ceremony after studying the extensive surveyor's report and personally viewing the entire store. He was joined on stage by executives from the Shinsegai Corporation as well as the mayor of Busan. A large and eager group of journalists, photographers and cameramen were also in attendance as well as hundreds of happy shoppers. The story ran on national news all day and night. Many congratulations to the Shinsengai Corporation and to the city of Busan.
