In the "Guinness Book of Records" has introduced a new category when Tony Collins, the 40-year-old Briton said that he lay on a gurney 77 hours and 30 minutes.

He was told that he would have to wait for a hospital bed, and left on a gurney parked outside the bathroom at three o'clock.
«My back ached, there was no personal space, and I had to rely on nurses wearing me a drink because there was nowhere to put the jug».
blockquote> In the end. for him to find a room at 8:30 pm - Tuesday.

Collins predictions came true in March 2013. 62-year-old Herbert Edwards with a suspected heart attack was taken to Great Western Hospital, Swindon too. He waited for a room on a gurney in six days, only 144 hours. It is not, however, broke the record of Collins because he was in a specially designated location instead of the corridor. In the same hospital, 41-year-old June Rodgers waited bed 157 hours, 88 of them on a gurney. She also did not beat the record of Collins because her hours on a gurney were not consecutive.
7. amputation at the same ruke

Ten years later, Hallam was offered the opportunity to get first hand-transplant. He was sent to Lyon, France, where he successfully sewn hand late French motorcyclist. Hallam then said that I hated new hand from the very beginning:
«Hand of the donor was bigger than mine, bald and pink. My own skin is olive shade, and have hair on it. It is not appropriate ».
blockquote> During recovery Hallam fell in love with a French nurse and left his wife, with whom they have been together 12 years, and children. "Marty (nurse) - the only good thing that gave me a surgeon - said Hallam. - In addition to it, I got nothing ».
Hallam had lost contact with his doctors and stopped taking anti-rejection medication. Inevitably, his body rejected the hand, and it had to be amputated the third time in the year 2001. The medical world and its French surgeon were disappointed waste donor hands. Hallam asked for another transplant in the year 2002, but so far it has not received.
8. The largest number of broken kostey
Ever since he jumped the last time in 1977, Robert Craig Nivelles, known as Iweala Nivelles had counts of 150 jumps on a motorcycle on the ramp to ramp through various obstacles. He broke or failed in 18 of these jumps. As a result, he suffered more than 433 fractures by 35 different bones - a world record.

He jumped too late and hit him in the groin, throwing it on the 4, 5 meters. Much worst accident occurred December 31, 1967, the year when he tried to jump the fountain at «Caesars Palace» in Las Vegas, a distance of 43 meters.

9. Survive the deadly incidents in one den
In Doshi, 10-month-old cross between a pit bull who lives with his owner in Kliarleyk, California, turned out to be a very bad day, April 15, 2003-year. That morning, she jumped the fence to escape from your yard, and then knocked her pickup. When police arrived at the Doshi had glass eyes and a limp. Having decided that a dog was fatally wounded, the police shot her in the head just below her right eye to stop her suffering. He arrived control over the animals and put what they had taken for a corpse in a plastic bag. They brought in the Dog Pound Dosh and placed in a freezer. Two hours later, the employee opened the freezer and saw sitting Dosh, with she was still in the package.
Officer bullet traveled along the skull Doshi - almost touching her brain - and got stuck in the skin under the jaw. The dog also suffered hypothermia, but after the first incident, she did not have a broken bone. Fragments recovered bullets howled, but to some extent lost the hearing in my right ear. Because Dosha three managed to escape death, Guinness called it the most successful dog in the world.
10. The hardest ubitPoskolku they do not want the people to compete for the record, we do not have the Guinness special category. But if there are, they will become prize-winners. Russian mystic Grigori Rasputin - the man into one frenzied night was poisoned, shot three times, castrated, and thrown into the frozen river before he died. But the record is undoubtedly Michael Malloy.
Malloy was a 50-year-old Irish immigrant who lived in New York in January 1933 year. Previously, he was a firefighter, but now the homeless and an alcoholic. Five friends made a plan to take away three insurance policies and to kill him. One of the conspirators owned a bar where drinks were sold illegally, and he gave Malloy unlimited credit, in the hope that he upёtsya to death. But despite the fact that Malloy spent almost every waking moment, exercising his elbow, he did not die.
Frustrated, the bartender, another conspirator, was replaced in the temples Malloy antifreeze. Malloy drank six glasses before you passed out - but not dead. The whole week Malloy did not drink anything but anti-freeze. Then there was turpentine. Behind him was thin horse ointment, mixed with rat poison. When and raw oysters, marinated in wood alcohol, could not kill him, the conspirators tried to corrupt him sardines sprinkled nails. Malloy returned a few seconds later.
One night the temperature dropped to -25 ° C, and the plotters threw Malloy in the snow, and poured water on his bare chest. When that did not work, another conspirator Malloy knocked on his taxi, causing unfortunate man flying like a rag doll. Then conspirator moved Malloy for hedging. After that Malloy slёg the hospital for three weeks, but returned to the bar, complaining:
«I am dying to drink».
blockquote> In the end, they waited until Malloy passed out, put it in your mouth a rubber hose and let the gas. An hour passed before Malloy face reddened, and he finally kicked the bucket.
The conspirators would have avoided trouble, but they argued about the money, loud enough for the police got wind of the scheme. They were tried, and four out of five of the conspirators were executed in the electric chair. All of them died on the first try.
