CHALLENGING THIS WORLD RECORD

Plan your attempt.

Before you turn on your camera, take some time to think about the world record you are about to set. Will you do it alone, or involve your friends? Do you have all the props you'll need? Have you read the rules?
Film with purpose.

You don't need special equipment or a Hollywood director to document a great record. Focus on telling a great story. Aim to make your video entertaining and concise — rambling intros will scare away viewers. IMPORTANT: If you shoot with your phone, be sure to hold it horizontally.

Rules

- Write the sentence "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" once, with one pen held in one hand; the opening "the" may be left out, since the rest of the sentence still uses all 26 letters of the English alphabet
- Upper or lower case, print or cursive; every word must be spelled correctly and every letter must be legible on camera
- Start with a blank page; timing runs from the moment the pen first touches the page until the last letter is finished
- Film one continuous, unedited take that shows the writing hand and the page throughout, and show the finished sentence on camera at the end; the time is measured from the video, and a running stopwatch in the shot is welcome
