Filled with don’t-try-this-at-home human achievements, natural and technological wonders, incredible feats in sports and entertainment, and much more, this updated edition introduces exciting new records and unbelievable facts that will captivate the imagination. Did you know . . .
• To celebrate the launch of its new route from Dubai, UAE, to Sao Paulo, Brazil, the Emirates airline aired a TV commercial that was 14 hours and 40 minutes long—the same length as the journey itself?
• The deadliest mountain of them all is Annapurna I, where 41 percent of climbers die striving for the peak?
• The Detroit Lions hold the record for most losses in an NFL season, ending the 2008 season with a 0–16 record?

Guinness World Records 2010: Thousands of new records in The Book of the Decade! CustomerReview
As usual the Guinness Book of World Records 2010 is great! I bought it for my 8 year old math whiz because he LOVES numbers and anything to do with them. The pictures are nice as well. Only drawback would be the font size, but how do you cram all that cool stuff into a large print book and still be affordable? Thank you Guinness Book editors for another amazing record book!
