If this contest is looking for a theme song, I will submit Lamb Chop's "The Song That Doesn't End."

Ashrita Furman, who apparently has nothing better to do than go around breaking meaningless world records - since he holds the Guinness World Record for holding the most Guinness World Records at over 500 - built a driver that measured 18 feet, 5 inches, good enough to break Denmark's Karsten Maas' record of 14 feet, 5 inches, which he set last month.

Check out the video below, where Furman really gets ahold of one and sends it about 82 feet.

Where do we go from here? Do I sense a response from Maas? Perhaps a new challenger will arise? Maybe Furman will try and break his own record just for the hell of it? Oh the possibilities ...

He holds the Guinness world record for holding the most Guinness world records! I bet he's on welfare/benefits too and should hold the Guinness world record for excuses not to work for a living!

I have a club record.

When I was 17 I ate 108 chicken wings in one sitting. Still holds to this day.

Impressive.  Were they Buffalo Wings or regular?

My brother ate 101 goldfish (live) at a party in college.  We wrote Guinness to see what the world record was, but they said they didn't do those records anymore.  I did only seven.
