Iluminando el mundo desde hace 107 años
2008-05-08 12:38:00
En un parque de bomberos de Livemore, en California, hay una luz que nunca se apaga y que todos cuidan con mimo. Según el Guinness de los Récords es la bombilla que ha permanecido encendida más tiempo, desde 1901. En realidad, la anciana bombilla no ilumina mucho, los años no pasan en balde para nadie.Cuenta Los Ángeles Times que en los más de cien años que ha pasado encendida sólo ha tenido un descanso, en 1976, cuando tuvo que mudarse a otro edificio porque sobrevivió al parque de bomberos original.No es el único desafío al que ha tenido que enfrentarse. En los años 50 los bomberos de este parque de Livemore la golpeaban al salir para atender una emergencia porque pensaban que les daría suerte.Y en la década de los setenta los hijos de los bomberos la utilizaban como blanco cuando jugaban al baloncesto.Fuente|20minutos

Australians set beachside bikini record
2007-10-01 19:26:00
More than 1,000 Australian women donned free bikinis on Sydney's Bondi Beach on Wednesday for a group photograph to win a spot in the Guinness World Book of Records. "This was certainly one of the more spectacular world records that I've been invited to adjudicate on," said Chris Sheedy, a representative for Guinness World Records. "As an Australian myself, it's logical that any record involving sun, sand and surf should be held in this country." Bondi lifeguards turned their ocean-front headquarters into a dressing room to allow each woman to change into her bikini. The skimpy swimwear made its debut in 1946. Hoping it would be worn by beautiful "bombshells", the designers named it after Bikini Atoll, an atomic bomb test site in the Marshall Islands.Source: theage.com.au
