And they are all in the Guinness World Records(《吉尼斯世界紀錄大全》). The book began about half a century ago. And it's always one of the best selling books in the world. People now can break over 100 records every week! Why do so many people want to break the records? Do they want their names in the book or meet more people around the world? "It gives people a chance to show they're the best in the world," said one of the record keepers. The book was started by Hugh Beaver from Britain. In 1951, he went shooting birds and talked with his friends about the fastest bird in Europe. Three years later, they were still talking about it. So Beaver believed that people must have different ideas. So he decided to start a book to record the world's truly greatest people and things in it! This book has a lot of interesting records.
