What are the criteria for getting a Guinness World Record?

A Guinness World Record must be measurable and breakable, first and formost.

Once you have an idea of a record you'd like to set or break, you must apply via the Guinness World Records website.

You will then be sent a guidelines pack advising you of the rules for this particular record, and the evidence you must submit for it to be verified. If it is, you'll receive a free certificate of your achievement!
