    Heorge Good One time I held a plank position for 8 hours, 15 minutes, and 16 seconds; but by George he did what the strip said.

    One time I lived for 101 years and survived 11 years without food.

    Take care and may God bless.

    shouldn’t the tire scent be on a CD video game whose theme is automobile racing?

    Ah, a creature who can survive through a lockdown. Looks like the olms will rule the world next.

    I think I like food too much to go that long without eating even if our bodies could last that long!

    At 62, George could have gone longer, but he needed to go to the loo. I wouldn’t make it 2 hours before I needed to go.

    Living in a cave for a hundred years; I hope I’m not reincarnated as one of them. There must be a cadre of scientists tracking this amphibian, because the animal would out live the guy who started to initially tract it.

    I can’t wrap my mind around the muscles being able to stay contracted that long!

    Popular in the 18th and 19th centuries, puzzle jugs were multi-spouted decanters with holes around the top that challenged drinkers to consume their contents without spilling any liquid. Apparently they hadn’t come up with drinking straws.

    Going 10% of your lifespan without eating is impressive, but it’s outright insane when that lifespan is a freaking CENTURY. Also I can’t think of a stupider gimmick than a scratch and sniff video game, the LAST thing you want to do is encourage kids to scratch their game disks.

    I thought scratching would damage the games.

    Didn’t George Hood have to go to the bathroom during those hours?

    So they went to a guy that spent 8 years of his life getting a PhD in chemistry and said Create scents that smell like a tire and a soccer field.

    And if you think that’s impressive you should hear how long he can hold an erection…
