Soup World Records

In homage to his love of food, Colin Nissan sets a new universal record by opening a can of Campbell’s Alphabet Soup and spelling out ‘PANTYHOSE’ in one minute, 25.77 seconds. Nissan set the record on January 7, 2009 at a World Record Appreciation Society event in New York City. He opened a standard size (10.5 ounces) pop top lid can, strained the letters, and then spelled out ‘PANTYHOSE’ using letters from the soup. Ronnie Gensler and Nicholas Fritzhand were present to document the achievement and confirm proper spelling. [#WRAS02][] tag:RecordSetterBook01

David Cain balanced a tower of 10 full soup cans on his forehead. NOTE: This record is dangerous and should only be attempted by trained professionals.

Mark Lamster complained to a deli waiter eight times in 30 seconds. He delivered 12 complaints but the last four were not within the designated time. Lamster accomplished the feat on October 18, 2009 at Ben’s Deli during a book release party for David Sax’s Save The Deli. Officials from RecordSetter.com were on hand to document the record. #SD01
