There are some very strange world records out there, so we want to get the strangest. The man who has the wackiest diet and I kid you not, Hala, his name is Monsieur Mangetout.


That's his nickname 1.


So, he eats everything, Michel Lotito.


Oh, got it! What does he eat?


Metal. He ate an entire plane actually, a Cessna 150.


Now, let me hang on.


It took him two years to do it. He eats it and then keeps it in there or does he eat it and what, we don't know.


Well, gastroenterologists say that he keeps it in there. He actually does not like bananas and hard-boiled eggs. Those things gross 2 him out. But metals, bicycles and televisions and rubber (He just can't hold down the banana), glass, yeah, those things are just fine.


Let's talk about my favorite, the largest Santa Claus gathering 3.


Oh, yes. This happened in Derry City, Northern Ireland. It actually didn't happen near Christmas time, it  happened in September. (Of course not) 13,000 Santas. I just worry about the kids.


Why?


They are very confused when they see so many Santas out there.


What about? Ok, now, here is to me, this should be the most pointless world record. But somehow it's made it into the books. This is a man who walked 80 miles, 130 kilometres with a bottle of milk on his head. I couldn't walk that amount without a bottle of milk on my head. He said he was a big dork in highschool. And then he became cool with these records.


And he's still a big dork, oh, I'm sorry. Ok, what about...


Look up here, still I resist dancing for you. He is the world's oldest stripper, ah, yes, Bernie, Bernie, Bernie Barker, 66 years old, Miami Beach, can you tell by the tan 4? He said he used it as a way to get into shape after prostate cancer. So look, there is hope for everybody...
