"Ilker Yilmaz might hold one of the world's most bizarre world records.

The Turkish construction worker on Wednesday poured milk into his hand, loudly snorted it up his nose and squirted it 2.795 metres out of his left eye in what he hopes will be recognized as a world record.

The website for Guinness World Records says Mike Moraal of Vancouver set the existing record - 2.615 metres - in France in 2001"



There is a link to a photo here that is FREAKY but I don't think I can link to it (can I?)... take a LOOK HERE!

Does anyone else think that the Guiness Book of World Records is almost single-handedly responsible for the degeneration of modern society? I had that thought yesterday in the article about the scorpion queen, and this article confirms it.

Probably milk being a little bit more viscous or think than water makes it easier to propel further. Of course, you wouldn't want anything truly thick... like ketchup...

The vinegar and lemon juice squirting contests were probably short lived too.... AAAIIIIIIIEEEEEE!! IT BURNS!....

With all the bacteria in milk, am I the only one that thinks you'll turn your eyeball into a science project doing this?
