Odd Guinness World Records

Steve Artressia

There’s a Guinness World Record for EVERYTHING (well almost, my submission for “Most Red Lights Hit, While Trying to Run One Simple Errand” is still pending). Guinness keeps a database of more than 40,000 records, and most of them are downright strange. How about THIS one . . . The World Record for the Loudest Burp (female). The record is 107.3 decibels. To give that some perspective:

  • A Jet engine at 100 feet is 140 decibels
  • A Chain saw at 3 feet is 110 decibels
  • A Power mower 107 decibels
  • And a Subway train at 200 feet is 95 decibels
