健力士世界紀錄大全

一個「世界紀錄」的存在價值是甚麼呢?天真的我,大概認為是「後進者的奮鬥目標」吧。小時候覺得極具權威的「健力士世界紀錄大全」,近年不斷被香港人衝擊--不是打破紀錄,而是製造紀錄。那些千人砌機(電腦)、萬人食盤菜之類,越來越不知所謂。但最有趣的,莫過於新晉歌手側田的唱片公司,打算將側田推出一張唱片便在紅館開個唱的「成就」,申請列入「健力士世界紀錄大全」(相關新聞)。
我不否定側田的毅力與天份,我所說的有趣,是他們怎樣去填
申請表格
最重要的,當然是填上要破甚麼紀錄「What record (current or potentially new) are you interested in?」 申請人必須要用英語回答下列問題,現在姑且試答:

Q:Who is attempting (or attempted) this?
A:Justin

Q:How will they (or did they) do it?
A:Singing.

Q: How is it measured, what is the record based on?
A:The time-interval between the launching of his debut album and his planned concert in Hong Kong Coliseum, the biggest indoor performing venue in this city. It is so short that we believe this will be a really significant achievement, which deserve a World Record entry.

Q: Why are you doing this?
A:Money. Oh sorry, we thought you asked us why we are holding the concert.... Well, he attempts the record because...... no one try this before.

最後,也是最難的,是用簡潔的文字(不論中英)寫出這項紀錄的Title,例如「Largest Airport Terminal」、「Most Awards Won by a Canto-Pop Male Artist 」等。各位愛護側田的朋友,唔該幫手諗諗。

PS:香港擁有的健力士世界紀錄
