The pursuit of records followed by entering into a book named after the famous Guinness has become for many people, almost a particular sport. In some sections of the fight for the title of "very, very" goes almost to the last breath. For example, when it comes to longevity, or the long-term performance of some action. Below - some of the most-most champions.

Nevertheless, jovial old man says he remembers Italian intervention, held in the 1880s XIX century and tells a lot of details about the time of his youth.
Of course, in addition to the pursuit of records in the field of longevity, there are plenty of other achievements concerning, for example, the length and duration. In addition to the most enduring and have the biggest and the longest. For example, residents of Latvia talked on the phone non-stop 54 hours and 4 minutes.
