Publisher Description
This isn’t a dry list of stats. It’s a tour through the wildest, weirdest, most mind‑bending records on the planet—each one translated into a story that makes the number actually mean something. You meet the people behind the digits: the memory freak who can recite thousands of numbers on demand, the endurance runner who treats a marathon as a warm‑up, the obsessive collector whose “hobby” quietly turned into 24,000 video games or 20,000 teddy bears. You get the distances, times and totals, but you also get the human wiring that made them possible.
Here’s what makes this book sell:
It’s organised for binge‑reading: chapters on brain power, human limits, money, tech, animals, cities, food, strange sports and more—each written like a late‑night conversation, not an encyclopedia.
Every record is real and named: documented feats, actual people, actual achievements, no vague “someone once did…” fluff.
It’s secretly motivational: after you’ve read enough about marathon streaks, impossible cubes and micro‑records you can try at home, you start seeing your own life as a series of personal bests waiting to be set.
It’s built for re‑reads and sharing: perfect “did you know…?” ammo for classrooms, offices, family dinners, YouTube scripts, podcast segments and pub quizzes.
If you sell books, this one hits multiple audiences at once: teenagers who love crazy facts, adults who grew up with record annuals, teachers and youth workers looking for engaging material, trivia fans, sports nuts, STEM geeks and content creators hunting for story fuel. It works as a coffee‑table browser, a reference for writers, or a “gift for the hard‑to‑buy‑for nerd” that actually gets opened.
Position it like this:
The most entertaining way to learn just how far humans (and the planet) can be pushed
A record book written in plain language with personality, not corporate press‑release tone
A launchpad for your own experiments, challenges and personal records
Put it in front of anyone who loves numbers, stories and extremes, and it will do the rest.
