The 22 Most Ridiculous Guinness World Records

"Hold my beer..." — these guys, probably.

Contrary to popular misconception, not every record holder included in the Guinness Book of World Records is akin to Usain Bolt or Michael Phelps. Over the years, several lesser-known — but equally impressive — feats have turned folks into record holders, accomplishments ranging from pulling a 6,000-pound train by the beard to assembling a Mr. Potato Head in a handful of seconds.

From the most amount of underpants put on in a single minute to just how far one man could yeet a washing machine, here are 22 of the most absurd feats that have made their way into the Guinness Book of World Records.
