There’s a guy named Carlos Silver in the Dominican Republic, and he just sang for 106 consecutive hours to try to break the Guinness World Record of 105 hours.<\/p>\n
BUT . . . when his almost five days of singing were done, he learned he’d come up short.<\/p>\n
Why?\u00a0 The rules allowed him to take breaks of up to 30 seconds between songs . . . but the video footage showed he took a few breaks that were two minutes.<\/p>\n
So yeah, he wasted 106 hours because of just a couple of minutes.<\/p>\n
