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.
I've added "- pieces of tape may be taped upon one another (ie. no need for every piece to actually touch skin)" as criteria. Regarding face, we could say something like, "- must be on upper half of neck or higher" and "- must be below hairline."
It does become very difficult to assess whether pieces are touching skin or not, but then 600 pieces of tape... I'm interested to see someone with 100,000 pieces - how long until it's too dangerous to breath or too heavy for the neck to support the weight... in this case, what counts as "face"? if it starts creeping over the head...
So the official word, I take it, is that the pieces don't actually have to touch the skin? It's obvious most of Nathan's do not. I thought they might have to touch our face since the record is "Most Pieces of Tape Taped to Face at Once," rather than "Most Pieces of Tape Taped to Each Other On Top Of Someone's Face." Whatever the ruling, that's fine-- I just want to clarify the rules so I don't go to the effort of making sure all pieces touch my skin (as in my last attempt) in the future.
It just gets tricky to judge when it gets to this level of face coverage determining whether the tape is in facet on the skin at all... which is why I guess layering on top of itself might still be OK but then will result in being able to put 5,000 pieces and a 1 foot thick head... which might be interesting to see in itself... :)
I don't see why multiple reels of tape couldn't be used. I stuck each piece of tape on so it was touching my skin somewhere, but that's not in the criteria exactly. Can we say they count as taped to one's face if they're not actually touching the face? What do you think?
I'm assuming the criteria on this is that the tape can overlap (as demonstrated on the previous attempts, ie does the tape have to rest on some part of the face skin, otherwise can it be over layered again on itself. Can multiple reels of tape be used?
