@jadenozzz @PatWilliams1944 In the years to come, when we have a Nuremberg style public enquiry into COVID. I just hope I live long enough to see Whitty, Vallance, Van-Tam, Ferguson and Hancock convicted for crimes against humanity.
Be prepared for Keir Starmer and most of Parliament being more concerned about how you react to the scenes in Belfast than the fact that an attempted beheading happened in a civilised, first world country.
The same Lewis Hamilton who used a corporate leasing structure to save money on taxes (around £3.3 million in VAT) when acquiring his Bombardier Challenger 605 private jet in 2013? The same Lewis Hamilton who bought the £16.5 million jet through his British Virgin Islands company (Stealth Aviation Ltd) and who then set up an Isle of Man leasing company (Stealth (IOM) Ltd, to import it into the EU and sub-leased it to a UK jet management firm (TAG Aviation), which in turn provided it back to Hamilton and his Guernsey company under charter agreements? *That* Lewis Hamilton?
@Do4M@abosalaharena Exactly. Tour de France riders are on the bikes 5/6 hours a day (or more) in hot weather without complaining. Footballers just getting the excuses in early to compensate for a poor performance.
When Guinness World Records stopped tracking the record for most beer consumed in one hour in 1989, the standing record belonged to 23-year-old Jack Keyes. He reportedly drank 36 pints in a single hour in Northern Ireland in 1969.
Thirty-six pints in sixty minutes works out to roughly one pint every 100 seconds—a pace that pushes well beyond normal human limits. Given that a standard pint is about 568 ml, Jack Keyes would have consumed over 20 liters of beer in an hour in 1969 Belfast.
Considering the human stomach typically holds about one liter comfortably, the feat is often cited as physiologically extreme. Keyes was only 23 when he reportedly set the record, which remained in the Guinness books for two decades before the category was quietly discontinued in 1989 amid concerns about promoting hazardous drinking. There was no final contest or formal farewell—just the end of the record’s official recognition.
The history of Guinness World Records itself began from a pub debate. In 1951, Sir Hugh Beaver, managing director of the Guinness brewery, argued over which European game bird was the fastest. Unable to find a definitive answer, he realized there was a need for a reliable reference book to settle everyday disputes—an idea that eventually became the foundation for the world records archive.
