Why Do You Pull a 8-Ton Bus With Your Hair: Guinness World Record Week Recap

What do you say after you've lashed a double-decker bus to your hair and pull it 70 feet?

Hint: It's not, "I'm going to Disney World."

I spoke with Ironman Manjit Singh after he accomplished the feet he couldn't achieve two years ago.

"Yes," he told me, "many people think I am crazy. I don't care. I'm happy to make them laugh."

This 5-foot-7, 168-pound Brit has put his body through unbelievable tests. He has pulled a 7.4-ton jet with his ears and inflated a meteorological balloon with what Guinness calls "the world's most powerful lungs."

Singh accomplished this feat as part of World Record Day -- an extravaganza in which we saw the biggest cheerleader dance, the biggest gingerbread cookie, and the largest gathering of different nationalities in one sauna.

Check out some of the highlights.

OK, all records are meant to be broken. Just ask Hank Aaron and Gordie Howe.

But these records are a little different. For them to fall, we'll need a nine foot man or a woman who weighs less than 4.7 pounds -- less than most newborn babies.
