Man breaks his 150th Guinness record by drinking lime juice
Published in Weird News
(UPI) An Idaho man broke his 150th Guinness World Record by downing an entire liter of lime juice in 17.29 seconds.
David Rush, who is on a mission to break Guinness records to promote STEM education, broke his 149th record a week earlier by drinking a liter of lemon juice, and decided to celebrate his 150th milestone by taking on the lime version of the record.
Rush was able to down the unsweetened juice using a straw in just 17.29 seconds, beating the previous record of 21.81 seconds, which was set by Andrew Ortolf.
"I think I'm done with drinking records for a while and will see if I can't find some more physically active ones that get my blood flowing instead of making me sit around all day after," Rush said after completing the record.
"My sister-in-law also told me I had to stop doing this since I was going to damage my stomach lining (she's a nurse practitioner and I feel like maybe I should listen to her, or my body which agrees)," he said.
Rush said his 150th record also coincided with the release of his self-published book, Breaking Records: 21 Lessons from 21 Record Attempts.
