Longest title of a book

That's pretty easy.

Longest book title sounds ridiculously easy. But I don't know how easily he could get a book published. Other than that, the marathon bowling certainly seems doable. He doesn't have that much money (shocker - given the degen that he is), so he'd like to do something on the cheap.

tallest sandcastle

with the right sand and a little study, this would be easy to break i think. could probably do it in a few days.

From browsing over the links posted, it seems the world record holders all seem to be legitimate entities as well as world-record holders. World's longest golf cart, for example, is a fully-loaded golf cart limo; world's tallest sandcastle has awesome lion sculptures and is entirely badass. Just saying: I doubt you could build a 30-ft pile of sand, carve some towers into it, and call it the world's tallest sand castle.

Most marriage vows renewals is currently 83. That's less than one every four days.

If "publishing" means merely having an isbn number, then it's relatively easy as you can get a block of 10 #s for $150. I wonder if it has a # of copies printed/sold/distributed stipulation to claim the record.

It doesn't matter what record it is, as long as he is able to officially break the existing record.

Does this mean that he can't make a new record, or can he only break an existing one?

I can't find the bowling thing on that Guiness website.

But the record for longest Indoor Fistball marathon is only 24 hours.

Edit - it's not volleyball apparently but it sounds pretty damn similar.

WTF is up with the dude that's eaten 2lbs. of metal per day since 1958. How is he alive?

He just has to get his name in the book.
