For the past 50 years, people have been putting themselves to the test for the highest honour - their name in The Guinness Book of World Records!
So if you could be a world record holder, what would it be for?
Would you do something crazy like ride a rollercoaster for a month or eat the most donuts without licking your lips?
Or something a bit more admirable like breaking the fastest speed over 100 metres?
Or would you prefer to do something that involves a bit less effort, like growing your hair over 6.2 metres or living to 130?!
Whatever you'd like to do, e-mail and let us know!
