The Most Unusual Guinness Records part II

by Asia&Julka

Have you ever thought of how tall is the tallest basketball player? 7 feet 5 inches? 7 feet 6 inches? No, he is 7 feet and 9 inches, which means he is 236 centimeters tall! That’s impressive, right? He’s name is Gheorghe Mureșan and he played in Washington Bullets, New Jersey Nets and Maryland Nighthawk.

And now, guess how long was the longest tennis match in the history? It was on Wimbledon in 2010 between John Isner and Nicolas Mahut. It started on Tuesday at 18 p.m. and ended on Thursday at 16 p.m. It lasted 11 hours and 5 minutes. Wow, that’s crazy! Final winner was John Isner. Players had to be very tired, didn’t they?

How much time do you need to score a goal? For a Russian player from Mitos Nowoczerkask - Michaił Osinow it took 2 seconds. It’s pretty good, right? He did it in October in 2011. He scored a goal, beating the goalkeeper from Olimpia Gelendzhik club.

And what about you? Can you beat any record?
