23 people gathered on November 15, 2010 to discuss adolescent and young adult cancer patients and families in and around Portland, Oregon. At the end of the meeting everyone said“Rompe el cancer” at once. The gathering was hosted by the OHSU Knight Cancer Institute Adolescent[] and Young Adult Oncology Program and the External Advisory Committee. The 23rd person to participate in this world record was the cameraman.

For a school project in Santa Rosa, California, Keren Luvishis filled page after page of notebook paper, front and back, with handwritten three-letter Spanish words. In the video, Keren and a classmate hold each sheet up to the camera and count off the sides from the first page to the last. The total of 2,768 words is Keren's own count of the finished pages. That pencil has earned a rest.
