Roach, R.I.P. - Neatorama

He was a fine bug: a devoted family man with over two hundred children. His loss was a shock to us all.

The Carmichael Collective in Minneapolis marked the passing of this roach by setting up a little memorial to him where they found his body on the sidewalk. It's one of several bug memorials that they made. You can find more photos at the link.

Yes, there are some physical endurance records that Guinness won't accept.

From Akron/ Green here. Can't say I've been more proud of my hometown.

Yeah, this one isn't dangerous, just silly.

I believe they stopped some endurance records, but only the ones that have the potential to be very harmful (like time without sleep, food, water).

Checking around it appears my memory is faulty and Guinness does indeed still list endurance records. Guess my brain cells don't win the memory endurance world record.

Didn't Guinness stop listing endurance events like this one a few decades ago because people were injuring themselves, sometimes fatally, in their quest for small print glory?
