How low can you go? Tim Storms might be tired of that question, but he’d probably be willing to bet you a large sum of money (if he’s a betting man) that he can sing a heck of a lot lower than you, or anyone you know, can. Tim’s deep register is so low, in fact, that Guinness World Records named his voice as the lowest human voice on the planet.
"The song is characterized by its strongly addictive beats and lyrics, and is thus certain to penetrate the foundations of modern philosophy." That's the description of this video on YouTube. And they might be right -- Psy's 'Gangnam Style'
Remember when you always tried to solve those kid menu mazes, only to realize your eyes felt like they were permanently crossed afterwards? Well, 40-year-old cartoonist Joe Wos basically does that for fun, and now he's trying to turn his hobby into world record.
Can you imagine making use of three cans of hair spray every day? Kazuhiro Watanabe, a funky fashion designer from Japan sure can.

Have you ever really wanted a carnival prize but couldn't win it no matter how hard you tried? Peter Drakos doesn't have that problem. In fact, the 64 year old Detroit resident may just be the best carnival game player in the world.
We're angry. Angry that somebody would take the time to make a cheeseburger so gigantic that it's actually kind of disgusting, and not even invite us over to have some of it. Well, Black Bear Casino, you can guess where we WON'T be going for vacation this year.
Congratulations are due to Jayen Varma for playing the bass guitar faster than anybody else in the world. At 324 beats per minute, he manages to keep going for over an entire minute. An impressive feat that unfortunately does really not sound very good at all.
At 24.7 inches, Jyoti Amge of India is that shortest woman in the world. But she's not the world's shortest adult. That distinction would belong to Chandra Bahadur Dang of Nepal, who stands 21.5 inches. The record keepers at Guinness decided to get the two record holders together, and from the sounds of it everybody had big fun.
Every day you should find something to be grateful for. Today we're grateful that the man with the world's deepest voice uses it mostly for singing 'Amazing Grace' and never uses it for making the brown sound. 'South Park'-ers known what we're talking about. Although the idea that Tim Storms could do that if he wanted to probably adds to the excitement of seeing him in concert.
