Every year, the Guinness Book of World Records tirelessly records all the new achievements of people, even if some of them are quite funny and seemingly unimportant to society. Many people who compete in the most unexpected categories dream of being included in one of the editions.

The website of the guide summarized the results of 2023 and named the most amazing record holders who showed their abilities and were able to add their names to the history of records. These include, for example, an edible dress or the longest kiss underwater.

Let's start with this one. On the romantic holiday of Valentine's Day, Beth Neal from South Africa and Miles Cloutier from Canada kissed underwater in a swimming pool for 4 minutes and 6 seconds, making them the new record holders in the underwater kissing category.

Paramount Pictures decided to set a record for the largest number of dogs attending a movie screening. They brought 219 dogs to the screening of the Puppy Patrol cartoon in the United States, and they even walked to their seats on the red carpet.

Continuing the theme of animals, the site told about a new record set in the UAE. The largest LED installation of a mammal, a camel 17.99 meters high, was made there.

Farmers did not rest this year either. The heaviest radish in the world (45.865 kilograms ) was presented in Japan. The previous record was set 20 years ago, when representatives of the Guinness Book of Records weighed a 30-kilogram vegetable.

China this year marked the construction of the world's largest glass-floored observation deck. The 716.09 m² platform was officially opened to the public in April this year.

Finally, the readers were told about an amazing record, which many of them did not even know about. It is about the largest cake dress weighing 131.15 kg. It was not only delicious, but could also serve as a full-fledged outfit. The miracle of design and culinary was presented at the Swiss World Wedding Fair.
