Task brief
The task brief is held by David, who is standing outside the main entrance to the house. The brief for the task is as follows:
Try to break a world record.
It must be an existing world record.
Whoever gets the closest wins.
Bonus point if you beat a world record.
You have 60 minutes.
Your time starts now.
Task notes
- Next to David, there is a tall table, upon which there is a stack of Guinness World Record 2023 books.
- Guinness updates world records daily on its website, but only annually in its books. The world record times/amounts set for each contestants are based on what is listed in the 2023 book, and not on the website, meaning that even if a contestant manages to beat the record in the book, they may not actually have broken the current world record (although technically, since a Guinness adjudicator does not seem to have been present, none of the attempts are valid anyway).
