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.
@Cedric - Short answer is yes. RecordSetter records are designed to be more creative than Guinness records - in fact, on most occasions Guinness categories are not even permitted on the site. Rather, RecordSetter's intent is to provide a more easily judged and more accepting record database. (As a note, I filed an attempt with Guinness and it took five weeks for them to get back to me saying that I was even allowed. Then if I had actually broken the record, I had to go through a ridiculous verification method coupled with more paperwork.)
Smiling is really hard for me, just tried for 40 seconds - felt like my face wanted to snap back like an elastic band to its more 'serious, and concerned look' Oh-God - how sad is that for me? LOL
Gold Member said it best - I truly like this record :D What a cool concept, and any-one can do this - and truthfully a few more smiling peeps probably be better for this world ! :D
I know the clock looks even sillier than my face, but it needs to be in view for "endurance" records otherwise the footage can be slowed or manipulated as there's no other reference to pick up dropped frames. It's easier to manipulate a video than to build a faked clock that ticks at double speed... there needs to be something going on to be happy about or make the clip a bit more interesting.

I love how it evolves from a relaxed happy smile into a scary looking painful quivering grimace
