It is the editor in chief of the Guinness World Records, Craig Lundy he's an amazing guy. He came to the office, we sat at a nice distance and chat facts with him and he has a new book out. You may have heard of its called Guinness World records. Twenty twenty two. It is a collection of all the greatest records that have been set. You know against world records is like explaining the Bible. You don't need that anyway, it is out now it's another fact. Pact book and Craig himself is an incredible person of such pleasure having him on so do get the book and we hope you enjoy them thus right and if we have one other announcement to make, which is that the whole of the UK and Ireland is something very, very soon

There Can we really exciting, but, most importantly of all, get Guinness World records, twenty twenty two and enjoy Craig Lundy on no such thing as a fish. Here we go You know

How low and welcome to another episode of no such thing as a fish, a weekly podcast coming to you from the queue offices in covering garden mining Dan Schreiber. I am sitting here with Andrew Hunter Murray petitions Gate and our special guess it is the editor in chief of the Guinness World Records Craig Glenn Day Once again, we have gathered round the microphones with our four favorite facts from the last seven days and in no particular order here we go starting with fact number one, and that is Craig right, while my fact this week is that the world's most tattooed person finally proved that they had the Guinness would lack of title by gouging strips of this scalp on posting it to the Guinness will drag its headquarters,

it in a match box noise in a match box at supper. Craig, as our group is one thing to do. Them is not just what you ask them to do all he was driven to do this at the very nice. After stresses the very very nice lucky diamond rich- and he has a full body suit of tattoos, I should expect, and he was convinced TAT ye had the record. Despite the current record of Tom Leopard, your Tom Leopard too, he was a british military. Vat lived on eyeless sky, I can buy recognisable because he was covered had to turn this bright, saffron, yellow and. spotted through body and war, gold's thong basic out, that's all he wore isolated, like a leopard does in the lengthy. While I thought by getting you on, we ve been very similar worlds. I think you have a very different life to us. No one else is gonna. Go you know Tom Leopard rightly called on yeah. I suppose this is written button. I guess so Tom had there.

Tom had directed at ninety nine point. Nine percent because of his almost he couldn't really determined. May there will be a tiny bit between this fingers are the nostrils in the years away, so unlucky, rich came around everyone just it by his the same he's gonna be ninety nine point: nine percent. I'm look at issues like no. I am more than one hundred percent and what he does. He had a fool body, shit of exotic, interesting tattoos he collected from around the world and then at some point decided to black them all in entirely, using just a black gun and then didn't stop. There then started tattooing white pieces over the black and then colored pieces, over the white, so as multi land? I think that make sense. I think that is more than a hundred years sermons. The one of the key rules against what matters is that, if this not breakable than it can't be erected rise, so is kind of like the thing with a we ve mentioned before in the shower pepper Army is actually a hundred.

percent pork, because to get a hundred grams of pepper Ami use a hundred night grams of pork and you gotta desiccated. Damn right. You d, I rightly so- is Simon lucky rich light like that, I'm an invitation. Bits and pieces, but I don't know yet: I guess I'm in here you can just indefinitely Colleen tattooing landing in tatters by rightly probably angry about this and the family about Miss the leopard about Mr Leopards and not beating him that he turned up at the office one day and we didn't know coming. So I got this weird Funchal unless you why I got to cause, I was taking calls. Maybe foolishly from reception- and in politics and was a blue man. Man, interception Whitehead in metal, teeth on about the blue man,

If I was asking just taken no or something, and is he left a package which ended up being like a wedding album but not of wedding photos, both very detailed and comical shots of his own body and all the body parts, and that really detailed like proper? cheeks apart type the team of what you say to him. Oh much else that I'm gonna definitely come in my head. The packaging send you was the size of the match Box, so to speak, bring very tiny writing, as the address audience adjusted very confused, postman picking on this little mouse package. Illiteracy, guys so so that you could test the tattered skin that amount of Eliza,

I think that was possible- his intention we had, I think, that a new story, because we ve taken a core sample of the world's largest paintball. You know that guy who paints of softball every day him and his wife give a coat of paint this thing and now it's me two and a half white. That does, of course, ample she's the count the number lies in an ancient extrapolate from that maybe inspired by that he sent us a piece of his head in the end, I think we'll just most overruled the body editor might said. We have to accept this, as a record is he's going to this great, lengthy, so passionate, and he is clearly more than one hundred percent covered. Thanks are eventually he got the record of people their heads- and you are something I feel like really connected. I read a story that you a walking down the street one day and a man recognized you stopped you and just started kicking himself in the head In order to show you that he was a Do a bunch of it in this

eight of the minutes and he made it into the book any Andrew that was also and started off as a job I may tend. Could you can we get a thousand patients a week to deal with him on the phone. and from all around the world is a lot to process a new and rejecting ninety five percent. If what you got in one included would be most times make yourself and that I think he said most kicks to the head. So we D codified, did you mean like you're. Someone else did you improvise on this, but I think that this is going to James Harkin's favorite is that he did in the past about gas. The world record for most cakes to one's own head is a hundred and twenty seven menace bloody, have them in the physical effort involved. So that happens the timing, people me, that's why we tend not to let people into the office. Hence why like a rich, was tunnel where he looked like a smurf, but he lives like the angriest. In a village. Galicia is completely Blake. I wasn't expecting that yeah. Think page, the blue

so it has certainly not a thing is if, for example, a kind of a philosophic statement. Everything needs to be an elder is goes air canals done parent am. I wouldn't know how how deep we're talking. Why hell for his guns which is very. Where does he showed gums, presumably put arms? comes: eyelid them innovation, tongues tattooed, but we don't do tattooed eyeballs. So we refuse to accept that, because it's just too far very very about visa medically. With can does he have to just lucky. Have now the thing I was gonna do when they may want to not use when it so weird, but the strangest application behind us who could tattoos their own rectum and what is, besides, that they actually pro lapse and in order to tackle immense thicket button, I suspect that it now

It's not do their own does. No one else will do very studied very cool hand and of course we did we did reject, but we don't want to be imposing All I don't know covers, for next year's kids have a go while beginners lines pretty far but you do have the line I found out of favorites tattoo artist, who I think has still practicing behind. So this is going to blame Dickinson and he got to the needs in two thousand and seven. I can't believe he gonna need, but he taught you to filling the breakfast on top of a man's head, and that was that was at the man it was in my I don't get. He hadn't requested it, but Plain Dickinson had said I wanted

There's no need to volunteer right so ahead. He found a voluntary on nineteen year old. He's at Yale. Do that's funny anyway. The next thing by Dickinson did he got an robinsons face tattooed onto his bottom. Next to the words you are the weakest link by because he had been on the weakest link we got kicked out in the first round. He was almost over about forty five seconds. The data of its assets. Are, you know that we have an elder fun, who has the honour of initial records picture tattooed on himself under a thing: ass, a restraining order, see near the off as well. But MRS saying what tattooed on him what we should be more women than men. Tat is not really surprising and others for the EU in almost every country, so it's in the UK, forty percent thirty

six percent. Forty percent of women are far yeah in Missouri than the average is forty percent. Thirty six percent. In the? U K its forty seven percent of thirty three percent unsettled and more popular among people with high levels of education. Because they can afford. It is well, I wonder, visual, quite expensive living or you get some cheap, actually work That means that, in the text by John, I found one tat too, which is worth millions you'd, obviously have to remove it from the person in order to sell at adoption oh, is it a line of code that is the code for Google or there over them and wise? I would that be worth that workers, because it runs Google. It's a! U mean it's like actually

is plugged in via that back will, like everybody, that heating one thousand. Ok, I'm saying that necessarily the saying that that might be a way of keeping the secret wooden yeah. Well he's gotta I know it is in fact Kate MOSS has two birds to us as a sort of locker birds on her lower back to flog well, I thought it was to cause I've seen the picture, but then she said we decided to do a flock of birds in the quiet that I'm looking at right. Now, it's in should I so it's too little birds on the back and it was tattooed by Lucien Freud.

The famous modest and these original drawings and he used to tattoo when he was in the navy. So he would tattoo sailors and she heard about that when they were chasing one day and she said I'd love to have attached by you. So she thinks it. Probably every one in the navy from his period is probably passed away by now, so she's, probably the only living person with a Lucien Freud original tattoo. So she said, if you cut back off her body, I'm not saying anyone should if you listening, she's already ended the great You know that skin is is worth a lot. Its original art by loosing, fruit and another very expensive taxi.

or very touching. Those were the huge amount that belongs to a guy called TIM Steiner about this guy he's. So he hasn't atone is by that was designed by this belgian artists cooled women Del Voice and it's very cool. If you look up its cover this whole back in this, like fish being written, my children and stuff like that and it was sold to a German, aren't collector called Rick, ranking and guide, Is that when he dies went him Steiner dies he's agreed that his bought can be removed, cannot be given to rake ranking and framed on his wool, and it is a good few. Tens of thousands of pounds you pay for. he's already sold and he's got the money. He's got the money and I, like we discussed with selling your hair in advance those a thing, people that bit silver, how they get a small down payment for making the deal, and then they go back to their us when they took the hair of, I would just run away. I would just runaway taken money and run yeah yeah. If you attach back, I yeah tardy back, I didn't get the money that the artist tattooed uncle the money for health is tat. You pack, guy

I saw a little bit of a type of fame on those things which programmes as you get anything you guys get it. I think you got some payment. Yak has yet to sign a contract that there is a role social story about a guy who is a beautiful work about by firms. Artists tattooed on his back, and then it ends up in the gallery doesn't get money before he does. I can remember that the current thinking already allow plagiarized by this house right. Ok, his is an ethical dilemma for all of you you're a doctor working year than any department right. Yeah someone comes in a patient unconscious, they have. The words, do not receive the date tattooed on their chest. Yet the word not is underlined is quite emphatic. Gm, not resuscitate, and its signed as well, also have attached to them. Do you resolve the guy night?

No, that's the thing right! It's a thing where you can request. I believe you can requested with his paper work. Yet this is not an official or no but yeah. I guess I guess it's just a reminder. As I read about another lady who had that on her front, but on her back just in case you is on the wrong side, it said Peter YO, so why time is really reduce this. I would think like complicated ethical dilemma, which actually happen where the hospital called in specialist, for you just said, no, the results of a year. That is its really tough, because I think- and I have no research is so please don't quote me on this any actual surgeons, but I think it's like if the patient has made their wishes clear, you're supposed to follow them. I think there are ways in which you can make wishes clear. So it is sometimes a bit of a grey area and not does him Why clay ones event Linda unless you meant to do a strike for, of course, ISA in this line to? But there was someone else who, in twenty two have had a DNS tattoo on his chest, but he was conscious when he was in hospital and the doktor said look was this data tat,

the chest and he said. Oh, I got it cause. I lost a bet playing poker. I I actually would loved if ever the version, I'd love to be resisted dated, and he the doktor said you should really get tat. You remove me set out an economical I could seriously so it don't come. What August I write DNS Pakistan, but do now result. The budget gotta get there no recess of K. It is time for plaque number two and, as my fact, my fact this week is that the judge who presided over the Divinity Code plagiarism case hid his own code in the actual text of the judgment I'm very, very unprofessional? Yes, so there was this big plagiarism case around. If you remember, between Dan Brown, the author of the Davinci Code, CO,

and the authors of a book called the holy blood and the Holy GRAIL unholy button. Holy GRAIL was a nonfiction book where a hypothesis was put out that the grail was in fact a bloodline lineage of Christ and there's a lot of similarities in the book to the point where Damn Brown actually amalgamate the authors names Agent and Lee, to a character within the book. So there's definitely a sort of acknowledgement of the book. Anyway, huge case, multi million dollar case and the judge fines in favour of damn Brown saying it is not plagiarism, and when he handed over the judgment, it went round to all sorts of different media outlets, including the guardian, where a journalist who was also a lawyer called Dan tense with reading it, and he noticed that certain words had a random letter italicized in it for no reason at all, so it a bit. what's going on there, and then this is where the baby

though he a bit hazy for me, because it sounds like the judge. Justice, Peter Smith, wrote to Dan tend to say You noticed anything weird about the old judgment, really really wanted it to be like a kid with. Is the grand yeah exactly you know, However, I am look. Look at the opening paragraph see what you see and you know, and then he was like. I notice these attacks. So you know it's a bit odd, so he tried to crack. It wasn't quite sure how to do it and then old judge got back. contact guy who, what are you look at my who's, who I've had some clues and that not only lie manslaughter haze time also ease british. I know I've given have said like old Wild known well now, if you look at it so more and more clues were given and they kept trying to crack it. Eventually. Eventually, it was cracked and the answer was

Oh doll, I think, is very trusting day. The thing is not doll, I think, is absolutely bizarre. We're gonna go easy answer, is Jackie Fischer, who are you dreadnought, ok and Jackie Fisher was an apple in the early twentieth century whose really interesting he changed. The whole royal navy he's incredible and justice. Peter Smith had a particular interest in Jackie Fisher. So you know head this code committee for his enemies, but Jake. Fish is amazing. Yeah he's, ok, first person ever to use debris The oh am g to be no, my god when it was in its seventies, so very cool. With the kids, isn't it I have when we struck you Fisher, I'm sorry what it was right to Winston Churchill. I think jet off Thus, while he was in nineteen seventeen that he used that, but he is incredibly Giacometti join the Navy at the age of thirteen witches mine blowing he served the Crimean WAR any revolution,

as the Navy he created the first ever all big gun fast battleship, which is the technical term, apparently, is all the guns of egg. I take from that and he was made silent. Then he lost the job and then he was given a back again because the guy who replaced them with Prince Louie of Batten, bug who was it, born in Germany at a german name, beginning the first World war laws. Especially so he was replaced by an if I had been in the british Navy forty years like unimpeachable, totally british, but he was called principally button, but so he lost the job in Jack Jack if Ashikaga. Yet his gaze interesting has replaced by button the act, which is a cake. The Kurds Fisher was responsible introducing bread onto submarines? I didn't bring cakes on one, efficient, introduce bread on the submarines. Yeah these no one thought of tat:

bread onto a summary before I wouldn't know. No one with the legal biscuits to read. I think it was because you couldn't take fresh bread cause, you know, goes pretty mouldy soft stale, so he introduce the idea of baking their own bread taking the ingredients for bread. then he become bakers, autism, bakers, undesirable, Jackie fishes in interesting. I grant you like, but I'm just saying you know. If the code revealed something like he's actually guilty, You know something that would mean that what it is the end result of doing all they followed your smile ass. No, what exactly are you right unless they didn't even get it right that even we just do probably at least Smithy yesterday? he made a mistake of well. I think, I'm on the defendant side in this sort of Michael Basins and Richard Lee. I think the judgment called it wrong. That's my name when she got no solely because you do this. The thrust of the Garriga busy

comes down or previously, maybe the pages many lives are busy can causing as codes and yet the card of lead, T being is our pronouncing it in the downtown novels is those two men names which I find wid because down Burma, the trouble of making anagram out of agents name fatiguing and then couldn't be bothered to find nanogram family will of Austria was grounded. It's only idea age to be very high, Eagle eye guilty please on Sunday, Verdammt Brown, I think that's done Brown is well, is writing the divinity cabbages so blobs I mean something credit, tens of millions of millions of copies yeah. Almost as much as the Guinness Roderick has not quite nice, try, brown and maybe more those stop here. He is rumoured to the author of a ninety. Ninety five dating guide called hundred

Ladys of men to avoid a survival guy for the romantically frustrated woman, a gay is humor book and story about it. I think, of the New York Times. Rudy recently, does a woman completely go with me. I was trying to track it down right because she believes this must exist is by Danielle Brown. That's who it's listed as being by Again, the master of Codes conceals and identify whenever she tries to buy. She gets delivered the wrong book. This has happened, I repeatedly and lots of different wrong, but ask are labelled as being this book and there's been some error with the barcode. There's been some mistake. That means This missing mystery book by we think by them, brown cause his agents well not confound the he's written this both. I just never said anything: he completely stone walls about it. What we think it's believed that he wrote it with his colleague of using his future ex wife, Blithe Brown. She wasn't his wife. Yet when they wrote a technical matter, then they got divorced. What is the barcode is a code. This is,

sounding later. He puts codes everywhere this guy. This is what Dan Brown does. I know but this is such a tedious equal that you too are attempting to renew it. Evans, hasty, Indiana Jones, huge bulk of things, just all this book, thousands and thousands of companies, because this has got their own backyard. that fits slightly into his early career as such, the idea would have written this, but because he was a musician, he tried to be a musician. He had a city that was released, those a sonnet called nine seven six law and then he followed it up with another city called angels and demons, which eventually became the first of the Robert Langdon Novels was it a sum we then I was now album, gives an album called angels and demons by Dan Brown and it's nothing to do with his future career as an old okay. So you said the CD bouquet,

his first robot Langdon, but based on the up and what I ve. Sorry, if the title, a very sort of, if you know the different she code series, is the precursor to the divinity code and then the sequel in the actual movie series very much like the wife's situ. Should a suitor predating and then becoming the future acts that angels and demons is the frequent in the books, but the sequel in the movies Craig has he got any records that you know of TAT Brown because he sold so many books Leith ACT. I would think he might think at some point. He did have that record. But the problem is this: we find it very hard because we have we claim to have one of these records right unless the best we in Asia South. So we re used to always sell us the best selling copyright book, because we enact seventy four. I think it was. We offer to doktor Spock's book childcare, which was

the point we because we are afraid of it the same, but we were different. Don't forget! I was not the other doctors body, show them no emotion whatsoever, live long and prosperous. No, no, not that doctor Serbia has events when is it Benjamin Sponge Museum? sensitive. It was the manual Emilio, seventy seven million commercial and at some point in nineteen, seventy four. It was we over ticket anything else on down brown. He never reads other books which is a bit distressing explained suddenly rose one only one at all events I didn t being here. He said in a peace that with the New York Times Zone- and he said I don't read other fiction because reading other People'S- what doesn't help me. It just tonnes me into a consumer. that allows an extraordinary is partly explains. The baby

I thought he reads: nonfiction. I think I thought TAT region was wiping her nose report as it may. I concentrate now. I share this not being a chef and not eating food wid, I think every so any. They are incredibly weird to believe you can write genuinely good literature, but be so arrogant about your abilities that you think you don't need to read. Other examples of it to draw from them alone: gotta be a consumer few on other codes hidden in places, so Recently, a very exciting code was cracked for the third time. Diminishing levels of exposure. Surely a fact that world been a while since someone cracked it. This is a book that was called Keynes, Jewel Barn and it was a hundred page long murder, mystery puzzle, so was created in nineteen. Thirty five and the idea was a prize was given out of fifteen pounds, which is

a thousand pounds in today's money, and it was a novel that was printed out of order, and the idea is that you had to reorder it in order to work out who the murderer was so page by page the book had to be re ordered by the person reading it. Work out, how the story, Plato and who the murderer was, and it's a short novels only hundred pages, but the possible combinations of a hundred pages are thirty, two million So it's an extraordinarily hard thing to get right, it's more than well yeah, maybe thirty two. In plus, and then on number. Of course, in number, the pages

Yes, because China, until they have some pages, whether chapter opening Ivan actually seen the hook s? Oh yeah, I'm not sure if it's just one long yea worry, but I'm it was set by unobserved, crossword, compiling called Edward pals maker. And yes, it was bound out of order, and only two people back in the day manage to do it. I think did in collaboration, and then it was re published recently has been out of print for a long time lie bodies of ours, John Mitchell, sin of Q. I, who has been on the pod cast with his company under and it was cracked by a british comedian who some of us in this room- and I was well John, finished or more Yahoo John Minimalist Souvenir programme on radio for he's. Currently, Co. Writing good omens too, with NEO Game and

yeah he emerged the greatest didn't they simum is a terrible hideous live. No wonder only two people did it all. It was a print. Nor surprise was his lockdown hobby, and it took him six months to do was to go into a room and he had to research everything to work out United, be looking into where certain train stations, where and stuff like that, just constant research to make the connections in the book work and a really got there were hundreds sure it wasn't a publishing coca around with coastal rationalize I'm? So sorry, we put your book in the wrong Oda. Why do we make this fund reminder? For someone is one of the most exciting? Joseph of codes that probably rock the world and the kind sort of same way. The divinity code really got people obsessed with it. Was the Bible code wasn't as Michael draws near

but that I met him. I feel ass. I said before my life against what records I was the editor of the x factor and not the Simon culture, but Alec upon or move magazine and become at all sorts of paranormal and conspiracy theories goes aliens, alas, that when we spent, we give a lot of anxious to Michael to talk with the Bible cordoned that rip Sheila Yahoo rips earthquake in ITALY came up there. I discovered this idea yes and published a paper which then Michael just and went into the ideas that you have escaped codes of. Every thing is that every fifth letter was very specifically in the Bible: every acts, as I think it was the. Maybe it was in the hebrew version of it, but you would take every fifth Latin spells Torah example or you take every hundreds lesson. It'll spell

Diana through Economic and is probably night? I think nonsense in that you could take any big subject. Any big book and apply skip could to, and you will find and unless he could message undesirable, if you take every two million lesser it spells out Jackie Fischer, who are you no way, someone that a bit of assets to disprove it by taking, I think, Moby Dick and find the death of Diana coded into Moby Dick and if we apply the cogent em in the words as Donna Doughty, Skid House, Royal Lady Dinah, mortal in the jaws of death and on report, even is all within the same code. If you report will be, they can find the code so yeah you

anything in anything yeah, there's quite complicated ways of written. That message? Isn't it you just vice like animals, lawyers? If you can, I hear he went on to produce this idea that some I was aliens that were giving us this code. Did he ask that was the second protocol to be posted ways at that point, I thought he was an atheist to just in Bali. But just found it while that certain obvious complete, I didn't yet no good point. Yeah yeah he's aliens. We ll give us dna issues of a court of another kind. He thinks it's all connected, and so we. yeah we stop publishing and auditing. That's right, you don't think that's my city x factor was in despair. Is the public is to stop problems? They give just to think about it. Tattoos that opening into mind was supported. The very first use of this staggering aggravating the word for it when you hide quota things as the tattooing people's heads and then sending them off ass, a messenger and they arrive

even in the share of their heads and, let's just a full English brightly, send the wrong guy. Ok, it is time for fact number three, and that is, I think this way is by an ancient persia. Instead of sitting in front of a fireplace to warm up, you'd sit in the wind placed, really cool these. These really cool things called bald gears and that spell address, but I mean you really pronounced than on humorously is

really disappointed us waiting to say badges and there we go I'm so sorry, Jays visa. The event is not doing a wantonness pronunciation, they on old, persian houses in open Leeson houses really, and they look like a mini greek temporary, dominated by the willing to greet Temple. This act he's a sort of a chimney and they ve got these columns on them almost like doric columns on them. They been around for some two thousand five hundred years. At least we think we think perhaps they got the idea from ancient Egyptians brought. The idea is that, as wind blows past them, they funnel cool, went down into the house and, as the hot hot air in the house rise is ass, hot ass does the cool is pulled downwards and it would come the house up and it would often be channeled into the sitting. Room of the general living area and a family could sit around the wind place and had blown out of water, so will avoid it properly and bring it in terms of gales of wind

or would it be just as when they really when the air like a beyond saves, as so many great music videos founding five hundred days they actually if it was a completely still day, it would be very surprised and have a gale force when coming down the chimney Bahia with it would be a channel as much as it could make us question. Could these things double as fireplaces? Is it Just could you light a fire in there and Billina instantly and decide on into the room, and I have understood the problem. I think that this bit of engineering cited by screwed up the dazzled by various flaps and stuff, the really cleverly design, so they face a very specific way that face in the direction of the wind would most commonly come in that area and they have little flat. You could open and close and very starts on them that, depending on the weather, wind was coming from you'd open

close to maximize efficient psycho. Wasn't there also thing we like us obviously wants the IRA's inside the air with warm up and rise. They also had sort of like cat flaps to let the warm air out sort of the buildings we pressurized warmer out, so we were just bringing in kind like an hour right, I'm not suddenly they have the same thing done it is. They re presses different insides. It blows everything out the ribbon. Yeah, then what is still there and then in the operating theatres resume when you open the door he just yet you don't get terms things get out of the room and I entered the room. It's amazing state budgets Saint Andrew earlier just was so clever. Is humans, the history of humans, I'm just going to invented something got this. I got this point right leg. Is it a circle? All I'm saying is like we ve been deserted on an island and all we have where the elements of the earth and the universe to play,

and this is where we ve got to, and even here stuff like this are facing major. The ancient Egyptians probably came up with this in its what a system, how clever everyone and giving up the past and gone there we are growing up now is having invented air conditioning. We ve now also forgotten the techniques of using natural ways of cooling houses, and now at conditioning is destroying the environment. I seriously since climate change take about pat back and it's all these boxes, vaults, isn't the Persians introducing the idea What are you a loose? They invented the electricity free version which is incredibly invented. The concept cover the concept of NGO. No, it is after billion air conditioning units on the planet, one for every seven people- and that is sir, is too many

It's too many by law and obviously, if you have some, I really really hot the natural impulses to get any kind of device that lets you cope with the summit's better. Yet it's really waste because a lot of the energy use gas tended hate so you're, killing yourself and heating, the rumour that for planet, although obviously we, we can talk having just injured a three month long summer, when it's hot, sometimes us all you want is not just stick it on I'll be dead, synergistic own love, freezing, cold rooms, SAM obsessed with

Allow them maybe thing you can do to trick herself in this regard. This is really interesting. There was a study, done, lay a guy called Frederick girls who is a psychologist and he's a member of the american society of heating, refrigeration and air conditioning engineers. Anyway, his study has shown that if you are shown a false, the monitor displaying a high temperature, you will feel warm even if the room is not especially heart. So maybe, if we all just draw a thermometer on the wall say, It's only ten degrees in here. What a chilly diet is. Anyone needs a safe journey. They don't like a device in the end. Have you got her John gory now he could have invented at conditioning. I mean someone got there first, no, he got effort in eighteen, fifty one he patented and ice machine. He was a doctor in Florida. He wanted some key room school for patients and his was a bit different.

It created ice which would ankle the re rather than none him calling the room with a man euro evaporation principles, but he was run out of business. By can you guess big ice bag? A giant ice keeps pretty much there were these ice makers from the north. the USA, who made their money hacking applies and transport Rakkeed really, and they looked at again. This time makers, that's like saying down: Brown invented. The idea for dementia is taking an from somewhere else the most legally contentious mocha, while no you're absolutely right the ice sellers, then the ice king, Frederick, tutor, said knight. Not everyone wants to buy them,

yeah, he campaigned against him and John Gary died penniless a few years later, his invention didn't take our work and it would have worked yeah while cutting out the idea of bringing ice in the older example of that, which was a mountain of snow, was created in the garden next to a villa which was imported via donkeys. sort of just carrying it in by wet. Where are we went in old days? Is a friend of the podcast racy anus a eligible US remedy era, roman emperor, who featured on the show because he invented the Whoopi cushion and his original name is Basic AMC. Healy heads that's differently, Ryan. I obviously, since I believe that we now face a heinous, but yes, oh he imported. This is the story. He imported a lot of snow into his village. They had this giant snow mountain for the summer just to keep himself,

while this ourselves, no megawatt of actually guns, are very war as you get inside them. People called here I had this idea echo many ideas for films as well. We ve never get made and the biggest written no one's ever done an income. like the proper income. Every to end all income movies idea went to research on Peru, doesn't ask to go on holiday really, but they have similar things done. They call cousin whether with keep food to have this grain stores on my Can sides should be designed in such a way to channel the air from a very similar sounding. The Incas were amazing, yeah does of architecture, but they have these Grange stores. Research placed about one days March, a part as raw across the whole country, a network of them on the Inca highway on the design, and another channels to drain the water so that if it gets wet it doesnt, smaller, that's how they were able to grow so big and cover the whole country because of these cultures,

amazing, smart heard of us will that's like come out today. The Persians also had these things could yak child, which some quite similar they'd like big. Equally this, what these little desert of big brother, anxious change the shape, depending on what was stored in, so a grand be round and for it would be square house. I see what you have more than I really had also stored nonfood things, but it was mostly further but different shapes for different size. Incredible. What's it like Pig shape, but that was not many shapes, but the other was that the recent comical

saying washing hamburger. The other persons had these use can insulated igloos, which were already similar, and I think a few hundred of them still exist and still function. Many hundreds of years old and you can shove frozen stuff in them. They can keep things below freezing, even one. It's well above freezing, just pull their your ice cream when air conditioning was new would know what it was first of other, but what it was nearly being adopted across Amerika, especially in America. That's where a lot of Asia Units Zaka got said: he'd like Washington, Dc New, which so hot in the summer, but the idol of this fact users from prospect magazine, I wrote about air conditioning. It was easier to get into buildings, because air conditioning in his were quite large at the time right and air conditioning in cars was very rare and special over ninety fifties because, obviously to miniaturized the technology surface into

I was really expensive window. They were young if you're in a car, but in taxes in the fifties, it was so fashionable that some people would drive around with their windows shut tight in a hundred degree, he'd just to fool their neighbours, thinking that they had a say in the matter like all sweating, but he's got a little moments are drawn on the final status of the gun, at the beginning or mobile phones and caused the Koreans a thing. Everyone who is getting killed over about seventy percent had just black wooden bricks. They were driving around to make it look like they have asked what we as dangerous, but you can get arrested for that kind of police by need when they stop here at TED.

You just holding a Britain on the phone. What really get around always carry a brick in the car. Just in case you gotta stop now, as I guess around what then do so You cannot really talk on the phone if it's a brain, I went over can be on the phone and then quickly Rick cover for your phone just with alone, oh yeah Just don't be unaffordable, you're driving on the most important thing, but if you have to be get that break, all right. We link Exxon. I was initially taken up widely good people. Incorrect, as this is it, this is a publishing fact. Isn't it it is not a publishing vital.

I think I may know what you're talking about. I must say it was used in publishing, but then it was widely taken up to actually warm places up and it has taken up by countries is an early twentieth century, and so the idea that one is really the technology behind it just allows you to manipulate the temperature and humidity in whichever way you like, and they take it with my factories in the particular textile factories. Where wasn't human enough in cotton threats are breaking, and so they Mass bore these new act on units to make it warmer and more human soul, malaria. The humidity thing await right into a shared but must be supported in printing of soup. But to bring it back to the book again, but I do spend a lot of time in printing factories. Printing the keenest attack has been MRS just night. Controlling humidity is a huge thing in that's. I was reading about early on that was introduced because the pepper gets Kincaid, humanity, changes and the pepper warps, and then you can't print ethically for color one.

on it, because you can get registration event that change the. How the ink sets the paper scotches on forestry issues that you wanted to register perfectly. On top of each other S, the papers slightly kings doesn't line up. You get these web halos colored halos around you moving when you said it gets kinky that all the material suddenly just terms it had sexy fishing yeah there's an ox. Ok, it is time for our final factor, the show- and that is Andy. My fact is that the world's oldest balloon has been blown up for nearly thirty years now someone's been continues blowing by my eye these exhausted. I am wary of saying this in front of the records master, but there are few different claims about the world's oldest Blaine. I don't have any it actually come across your desk and been

terrified. This was a recent story. A young Michael Ryan, Harrison Avis envied by the Sun newspaper and he was given a foil balloon when he was born in ninety ninety two and his parents taped it up in a box, and he insists that it still completely blown up so that longer claimant. This one guy called Jordan Lyman, who does in Birmingham and in twenty eighteen he'd have on for twenty six years. So that might be when he nine years old by now about the same age, is only the size of a tennis ball, but he claims it was under the size of a tenable. You got it all around side balloon what he was small at the time as what he was born and even more so the normal Berlin. Yet within it nicely No, I dont accepting that got balloons and propose dearer inside the younger birthday. The big the balloons I already won with it I would have got away of you always has to be the same size as your head. These are the tinfoil balloons say if you pay.

shrink the balloon right now, it's not your classic rubber balloon advances this. This one was my level one. Almost my lawyers are not yet not actually ten foil of is examined. I pay my law. What's mine, plastic pen thing has been covered in metal. Yeah tinfoil bullet tinfoil could not there yet. But I just can't believe this. I think they're lying under come out and say it

I do not think so by that were already. We ve all heard those balloons and they displayed by the end of the day, practically the kind of floppy and placid inside absolutely incredible. I do get it. I'm in the company gets probably once every couple months a claim in from my love flush, foil balloons. Until you mentioned this was going to come up with a we reject as acclaim intrusting, whether we have done at least, but they all seem to be roughly the same age and I'm wondering if that is of a manufacturing period, when these mylar balloons were made. Certain speculative, maybe too high and all sorts of blood on a stick? Isn't that same one that your holiness ago, the golden age? I can these, whether they accept robotic instructive. I went through rather than go to bed last night if I went through

Stop the hundred and one claims to plot peerless, claiming by of we haven't seen. The balloons bet plotted them all. But I had a few from the UK is a guy called Craig. Would now he's gone? It's a boy twenty eight years and ten months, I'm ready or Sure she's got and it's a girl S. Thirty three years old, then I emailed them unto came back. I know I'm sorry pictures of these balloons and has the same type of balloon. Who are you ill closet is the mile I dont say my like: is the Guinness Old records books traditionally, whether shiny ones, you remember, there's yeah, maybe material. So again, I've widely to become an expert in

Finally, in my long you down if the same thing about this as a sign that we gotta, but we have a pet filed cover, we dont night could be the book to be recyclable, so we ve got rid if not because the sheets themselves can be recycled this its past. This is here. This is amazing. I think we need to reactivate this as a record This is obviously a thing in our job. Innocent ecosystem reflect was happening, serve people starting these balloons. yeah and what they do seem to be like that. You keep balloons down there everything like toenail clippings. I do. I keep a lot of random. You ve been to sense, but not not balloon spot yeah. I do have a cabinet of of super old things. I keep like the world thing. Well, my turn out of things like bananas, mainly like the toys I had as a child and stuff like that bomb doing it for my kids on keeping stuff like I've, got the pillow that my wife asleep hold them,

you mean the oldest pillar in the world no nothing, nothing special like that, like a like a balloon. even decades ago. Reshape receiving the pillow the door I was alleging eight conceived. Yes, I've got my. You know. The blue scrubbs kept that that my second son when I was wearing when he was born, to give it to him for Halloween in when he turns eighteen, just random other varieties. They present, though, if you saved up with what way more of a kind of in London. You must have a very big property that understand, Let us therefore ok you're gonna I mean it sounds like unless these are legit that, unfortunately, for twenty nine year old Rhine he's not got the record, very exact. I think this might be a record for the first time we have ever had effects pretty much comprehensively debunked, while we

Accordingly, we normally weight into the recordings actions over research on embryos from these people must be so excited. Because did you say you were looking at two o clock in the morning and evening they replied already presented us with they ve been waiting for something If you have initial deck is on your email address, people tend to get quite excited, I'm not sure that he will have written in and then we have rejected and then Afridun Boxing. I say this might be erected relevant excited. Why I'm sending pictures of these balloons? And yeah story in, that's amazing that like even though it was rejected, she's held onto it, going and one that one day there is anybody. I replied well well. Well, look comes a floating in a bag. My goes to. How do people beat it if we tried to set a record? So we, if we hold the rice, start to do better than you

But what did I do they record of video? What do you have to be press? No, we can't we get so we get by thousands applications through. So we can't got everything yeah. So we do have some guidelines were filming it getting an independent witness. You have to get for the grass and all the stuff of these special doing and send all that to us with the video and on one take video well yeah. I want to set about two videos if he cuts that one into the re Mina Then the ascendant you gotta get us what it is, not common register, your application. We send you the rules that we recognise a set of rules that you must follow. If you do that then using a ten mile. If you set the record than the next best thing applies, gets given you figure to beat yes, sir, they know that they have to do better than unwell. Quantifies is an independent observers that mean you can't be holding a gun today,

at the time we were not your mom, and we felt that before we actually got reported to the cream moving us. Someone, a very I can't see who is with someone who was very famous- is a famous organist, we know that and that narrow, not many here anyway, he did have is, I think, is my mother witnessed the longest organ Madison twenty five hours, plainly organs. When we then rejected singly cut of your mumsie that it gives us nothing. He wrote to the queen, said this is disgusting. Grievous. Wasn't british now sit down again, not to the queen to say this is outrageous. One of your subjects has refused me at my recognition. So the queen's custom react to things. If you send a letter She has to do something about. You never asked for any of my answer. Then she sent the Department of Trade and industry who then got in touch to say, what happened with the organs like why war

and there they understood in the end that their work guidelines we didn't follow. The guidelines. is made. That is strong and I gave a foreign organist I continent clothes, bequeath, apparently mega faith said Emily Organ World longest organ played means very different thing, obviously, and other recognize you We'll get you mom to witness that no again widely em. The queen has several records. I've been looking up Ancona obstacles, This is not a free time communities but they're all those kids to the head. The amateur are already like, always carbonic longest raving queen ass, to be your yeah. She came to the office Actually wow I mentioned during organ gates, sought sought out yourself

Hendershot him, because with one summer war does not exist. Often even those that relate to fill paint the office. I'd love if the queen sitting in research should be looking at auditor is hooked up. the dinosaur turned off the office when they say that that is also quite famous, not while the glutton has like fastest three course meal in, and he has this thing when he swallows hotdogs hole, and that is the one of the rosy can bite them. So he hears from Essex a thing greatly open the can. A can of hot dogs is home and then took on the train into London, open snow and full of brain consequently office and said- I'm Peter Dinosaur Netanyahu. He was cast his there's just one of the name. Is that just add that, with over the years everything tat I want to eat this summer,

Jesus. I work so this is the clear Let us why we stop people coming to the office now, because he ate eight of these subsidies back to buy cheap. We put it in your mind. You push one dine with other, so you have this chain, Nightline what're! You stop by now. We can't get more than political life is gone. As far as it anyhow said, you need a night sausage to push the eight one and then you withdraw new retry. Can I get you anything, get your fingers and act as an enemy. He didn't you got there. Great and then I can also drink milk hanging upside, let We ve got a frame or anything they had to very boys in the office, so got the two boys to her.
