From the largest continuous kiss in Paris to the most garlic eaten in a minute in New Zealand, many more weird attempts are planned for the 2008 Guinness records event.

The editor of Guinness records Craig Glenday said that there is an increase of 173% in the approved applications over last year.

AFP reports some of the most bizarre attempts are going to be witnesses from all parts of the world.

New Yorkers will watch over an attempt of holding the maximum number of rattle snakes in the mouth.

Dublin will see someone try to be the world’s fastest accordion player.

I wonder how the New Zealanders are going to endure the stench from the garlic eating attempt.

So we are all in for a big treat from television coverage of the events.
