We think only a record holder can know what you go through to set a record, so we only let people that
have already set world records downvote other people's records.
What can I do?
Go set a record! If you can think of it, you can set a new world record for it.
Thank-you so much Jennifer :) As part of the URDB I feel obligated to present the very best of my efforts (a strong believer in competition against self) and in that I feel I better represent the URDB :)
Yes, there was a simler record, but that record - the record setters were allowed to rest parts of their arms on parts of their body - where as this record the arms must worlk alone to lift the entire body. (I remember seeing a pic. of the one your speaking of-and Dan Rollman wasn't content with the presentation in and of itself, so I wanted to come up with clear criteria/boundaries to supporting one's weight via fingertips.(one which Dan Rollman would have no reservations about) :) )
Thank-you URDB for the most humble honour, all I can say is ultimately I can only compete against myself - which I find hardest because before each time I already tried my best. * I can only cherish the moment because sure enough another will come to break any one of my records, and all I can truly hop for is that I provided them a good challenge at best. :)
