Browsing through record books such as "Guinness World Records" reveals some very intriguing records.
Rather than finding out about the fastest runner in the world, the weirdest world records include some rather more exotic and memorable stunts.
In Mexico City, 2,433 people took part in setting the world record in the most simultaneous cola eruptions - by dropping Mentos mints into diet coke bottles.
9-year-old Joe Allison can balance 16 spoons on his face. He holds the record on the most spoons balanced on a face.
The Marina Bay Sands Hotel in Singapore boasts the highest swimming pool - located on the rooftop on the 55th floor.
In the dense rain forest in Rondônia, Brazil, lives the most isolated man on the planet. When people tried to contact him, they were shot at with arrows.
Finally, the world's longest song is called "Longplayer" and has been playing in London for nearly 11 years already. Longplayer is intended to last another 1,000 years.
