Boy Scout World Records

Jameson P. completed the 50 Boy Scouts Merit Badges quiz game in three minutes, 33.56 seconds.

On a camping trip at Khao Yai in Thailand, eight friends ages 6 to 11 (Sebastian, Hugh, Fraser, Cole, Willa, Lorelei, Morgan and Ella) found a bamboo pole with a branching tip and made it into a 30-foot marshmallow roasting stick. The video shows them measuring it with a tape in two sections, 16 feet to a marked point and 14 feet more to the end of the twigs, for 360 inches in all. After dark they hoisted it over the campfire, balancing it on a toy horse, and say they roasted more than 40 marshmallows in one go. They planned the whole thing themselves.

Kim R. led 21 Cub Scouts in climbing an oak tree. They are the Cub Scouts from Pack #1015 in Alameda, California.
