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

- Dictate the sentence 举头望明月，低头思故乡。 exactly as written, including the comma and the full stop
- Use a tablet; the device's built-in dictation or any third-party voice input method may be used
- Speak the sentence live into the voice input; typing is allowed only to fix recognition errors, and no pasting, text replacement shortcuts, saved phrases or recorded audio
- The finished text must match the sentence exactly, characters and punctuation; errors must be fixed before the timer stops, and the time spent fixing them counts
- Timing starts on a stopwatch reading to hundredths of a second, started from zero on camera before the voice input key is pressed, and stops once the complete, correct sentence shows on screen
- Must be one continuous, unedited video with sound, showing the tablet screen and the stopwatch throughout
- Must follow form of current world record holder
- Must provide video evidence
