So he just broke the record for television watching. 69 hours and 48 minutes.

This person also currently has over 16 Guiness World Records, including balancing on one foot the longest, and bowling for 100 hours.

And he does it to raise awareness of suffering children?

LOL I could break that! How do I document it? Someone here should find the record for video game playing and break it!

I wonder if you get anything besides your name in the book and your picture on the news? That's alot of wasted time!

How could he bowl for 100 hours but only watch TV for 69?

Probably because he had to watch ABC all the time.

The first week Madden came out I literally played about 12 hours a day. The next week school started back up and walking from class to class hurt insanely bad. It literally hurt my legs, ass, and back to walk. Never will I do anything like that again..Unless the game is incredibly amazing >_>;;;*CoughTwilightPrincessCough*

5 minute break every hour, and 15 minute break every 8 hours. Otherwise he must constantly be looking at the screen.

That honor should belong to me, seeing as I once played FF7 40+ hours straight. No joke, shame I was just a VG carzed kid back then. The harden, cynical, sleep deprived adult in me wo'nt even let me play it for more than a few hours before passing out :)

Edit: Just read he got a five minute break, perposterous, back then I could play one day straight with only a 10-20 second break to either eat or use the restroom. Pussy. ;)

When I was unemployed I probably watched more tv then that.
