For the Record

It is amazing to see what lengths some folks will go to to achieve their 15 minutes of fame. Guinness World Records has just released their 2019 edition and from what was shared people can either be incredibly creative or simply apply themselves with a single mindedness that should afford them greater recognition than an entry in a book. First up is a previous record holder for most pierced male in 2010,this year he is included for most body modifications at 516.
 Rolf Bucholz has 516 piercings and implants on his body.
Ash Randall of Cardiff, U.K., managed to control a soccer ball with his feet while on a moving car for 93 seconds.
I'm not sure how legal this was but the record for longest controlled ball while on moving vehicle is now 93 seconds.

Bibi, a cat in Malaysia, managed to balance nine dice on his paw.
British resident Betsy Bond has knitting needles measuring 14 feet, 6.33 inches in length, and 3.54 inches in diameter.
Germany's Dunja Kuhn is able to spin 59 hula-hoops at the same time on different parts of her body.
