The most coconuts smashed around a person blindfolded in one minute
How many coconuts can a blindfolded man smash with a sledgehammer? For added interest, those coconuts are positioned around another man's body.
The new world record for this challenge, certified by Guinness, is 69 coconuts.
I assume the blindfolded guy can actually see. But if that's the case, why is Guinness certifying the record?

There must be something going on here, because normally Guinness don't recognise potentially dangerous records any more.

The Guinness World Record Book has gotten ridiculous. It started out as who could run the fastest mile but now it´s who can shove the most coconuts up their azz in 30 seconds.

@F.U.D. You are not wrong. Not *entirely* right, either, because they do still do the real ones like oldest person in the world and tallest building and all that, but there are some ridiculous ones these days. Who can put on the most Crimbo jumpers in 30 seconds? Who cares!?
(Still, it's good that they stopped the "who can drink the most litres of water in a minute and die of water poisoning" stuff.)

Anyone remember the Guiness Game of World Records? A bit of trivia, some party stunts.
