Guinness World Records, known from its inception in 1. The Guinness Book of Records and in previous United States editions as The Guinness Book of World Records, is a reference book published annually, listing world records both of human achievements and the extremes of the natural world.

The book itself holds a world record, as the best- selling copyrighted book of all time. As of the 2. 01. 7 edition, it is now in its 6. The international franchise has extended beyond print to include television series and museums. The popularity of the franchise has resulted in Guinness World Records becoming the primary international authority on the cataloging and verification of a huge number of world records; the organization employs official record adjudicators authorized to verify the authenticity of the setting and breaking of records.[2]History[edit]On 1. November 1. 95. 1, Sir Hugh Beaver, then the managing director of the Guinness Breweries,[3] went on a shooting party in the North Slob, by the River Slaney in County Wexford, Ireland. After missing a shot at a golden plover, he became involved in an argument over which was the fastest game bird in Europe, the golden plover or the red grouse.

It is the plover.[4]) That evening at Castlebridge House, he realized that it was impossible to confirm in reference books whether or not the golden plover was Europe's fastest game bird.[5][6] Beaver knew that there must be numerous other questions debated nightly in pubs throughout Ireland and abroad, but there was no book in the world with which to settle arguments about records. He realized then that a book supplying the answers to this sort of question might prove successful.[7]Beaver's idea became reality when Guinness employee Christopher Chataway recommended University friends Norris and Ross Mc.

Whirter, who had been running a fact- finding agency in London. The twin brothers were commissioned to compile what became The Guinness Book of Records in August 1. A thousand copies were printed and given away.[8]After the founding of The Guinness Book of Records at 1. Fleet Street, the first 1. August 1. 95. 5 and went to the top of the British best seller lists by Christmas. The following year, it launched in the US, and sold 7. Since then, Guinness World Records has become a household name and the global leader in world records.

The book has gone on to become a record breaker in its own right; with sales of more than 1. Guinness World Records is the world's best selling copyright book ever.[9]Because the book became a surprise hit, many further editions were printed, eventually settling into a pattern of one revision a year, published in September/October, in time for Christmas. The Mc. Whirters continued to compile it for many years. Both brothers had an encyclopedic memory; on the TV series Record Breakers, based upon the book, they would take questions posed by children in the audience on various world records and were able to give the correct answer. Ross Mc. Whirter was assassinated by the Provisional Irish Republican Army in 1.

Following Ross' assassination, the feature in the show where questions about records posed by children were answered was called Norris on the Spot. Guinness Superlatives (later Guinness World Records) Limited was formed in 1. Sterling Publishing owned the rights to the Guinness book in the US for decades. The group was owned by Guinness PLC and subsequently Diageo until 2. Gullane Entertainment. Gullane was itself purchased by HIT Entertainment in 2.

In 2. 00. 6, Apax Partners purchased Hi. Watch Note To Self Hindi Full Movie here. T and subsequently sold Guinness World Records in early 2.

Jim Pattison Group, the parent company of Ripley Entertainment, which is licensed to operate Guinness World Records' Attractions. With offices in New York City and Tokyo, Guinness World Records' global headquarters remain in London, while its museum attractions are based at Ripley headquarters in Orlando, Florida, US.

Evolution[edit]Lucky Diamond Rich is "the world's most tattooed person", and has tattoos covering his entire body. He holds the Guinness world record as of 2. Recent editions have focused on record feats by person competitors. Competitions range from obvious ones such as Olympic weightlifting to the longest egg tossing distances, or for longest time spent playing Grand Theft Auto IV or the number of hot dogs that can be consumed in ten minutes, although eating and alcohol consumption entries are no longer accepted, possibly for fear of litigation. Besides records about competitions, it contains such facts as the heaviest tumour, the most poisonous plant, the shortest river (Roe River), the two longest- running dramas (General Hospital and Guiding Light) in the US, and the world's most successful salesman (Joe Girard), among others. Many records also relate to the youngest person who achieved something, such as the youngest person to visit all nations of the world, being Maurizio Giuliano.[1.

Each edition contains a selection of the records from the Guinness database, as well as select new records; the criteria for inclusion having changed over the years. The ousting of Norris Mc. Whirter from his consulting role in 1. Diageo Plc to sell the Guinness World Records brand have shifted it from a text- oriented to an illustrated reference book ("style over substance").

The majority of world records are no longer listed in the book or on the website, and can only be determined by a written application to Guinness to 'break' the record. For those unable to wait the 4–6 weeks for a reply, Guinness will process a 'fast- track' application for £3. US$4. 50). The Guinness Book of Records is the world's most sold copyrighted book, earning it an entry within its own pages.

A number of spin- off books and television series have also been produced. Guinness World Records bestowed the record of "Person with the most records" on Ashrita Furman of Queens, NY in April 2. At that time, he held 1.
