There is only one place where youll find all these information, and thats in the Guinness Book of World Records. This morning we

13、 Beaver, the managing director of Guinness, was out shooting birds with some friends. A bird flew away so quickly that no one was able to shoot it. Sir Hugh wondered whether this bird was the fastest bird in Europe, and if it wasnt the fastest, he wondered what was.” “So I suppose he went to the nea

So, to ask your first question: the tallest person in the world is 231.7cm tall. And the oldest person is Jeanne. L. Calment, who was born in February, 1875.” “There are also some rather strange records, arent there, Thomas?” “Yes ,thats right. Did you know, Sue, that the shortest time it is taken ”
