The one about 'The World Record-Breaking Capital'.



Jack Boulware writes for WIRED Magazine in a sarcastic but insightful piece about the record breaking exploits of modern day Malaysia in his article.

From the dangerous (most days spent inside a box with 6,069 scorpions) to the inexplicable (most faces captured on a phonecam) and the outright banal (first independent tire-testing facility), not a week goes by without a record-setting event somewhere in Malaysia. The country might just be the world record holder in holding records.


This piece certainly caught my attention. I didn't know even 'The Malaysian Book of Records' was still televised or kept in publication.
