Matthew Cassiere

Better hog tie this guy

This is Matthew Cassiere of New England and he has the record to the fastest escape from handcuffs. He set the record in October 30th 2004 of escaping out of the cuffs in 5 seconds. So its only fitting that he is a magician and apparently a good one at that. He is the holder of 11 other records as well as this one.

Bernie Barker

Too old to strip right?

This guy would have told you different, being that he started his career at age 60. He was successful in doing this as he won atleast 30 contests in the Florida area. You would think that he would be there to retire, but he decided to start a career in stripping at 60 after his battle with cancer as motivation to get into shape. You got to give it up to him for doing something that we would not imagine doing at 60.

Vincent Pilkington

Turkey Pluckin Machine

In light of Thanksgiving that is coming up soon, I thought this guy would be an interesting guy to know. His name is Vincent Pilkington of Cootehill, County Cavan, Republic of Ireland. He has a long standing record for the fastest plucking of a turkey, which de did in 1 minute 30 seconds on November 17, 1980. He even plucked Turkeys for charity, plucking 244 of them in just 24 hours. Plucking that many Turkeys in a 24 hour period is pretty amazing in itself, but I am not sure if that is an official record or not.

Zafar Gill

Now that's a nice earring!

This is definitely the kind of thing that makes your stomach turn when looking at it. Not only is this man have weights attached to his head, the weight is only held up by one ear. This is amazing and seemingly very painful for one to endure. Mr. Gill of Pakistan is holding 136 pounds of weight with just one ear holding it up with a clamp. This record was made official on September 30th 2007 in Vienna, Austria. I am not sure of how many pounds it would take for something to rip your ear off your head, but apparently its not 136 pounds.

Stephen Taylor

What a big tongue!

When you think of long tongues, you automatically think of Gene Simmons of Kiss. Gene Simmons does have a very large tongue though he does not own the record, at least not officially. Stephen Taylor of the UK has the record for the longest tongue measuring at 3.74 inches (9.5cm) from the tip of his tongue to his top lip that was set on January 5th 2006 in Milan, Italy.
