A dog that can jump more than six feet is among the weird and wacky champions revealed today in the 2019 edition of the Guinness Book of World Records.
Feather, a greyhound rescue from Maryland, USA can jump 191.7cm (6ft 3in), which is only a few centimetres less than the British women's record set by Katrina Johnson-Thompson at the Rio Olympics in 2016.
Samantha Valle, 31, Feather's owner, says her talents became apparent when she saw her jump so high she hit their basement ceiling.

Another competitive canine scooping up a world record in Geronimo, a border collie - Australian kelpie cross, also rescued by Samantha.
Geronimo holds the record for the most double dutch-style skips by a dog in one minute, at 128. The human record was is 133 and was achieved by Huang Junkai, Jiang Dali and Jin Zhenyu from Shanghai in September 2017.
After six weeks, Samantha had an idea to add a skipping rope into the mix when Geronimo was proving difficult to train - it soon became clear that Geronimo was a complete natural.

Samantha takes great pride in seeing the promise in animals that others have left behind and trying to bring out the best in them.
'Sometimes it takes a certain person to come along and see the potential in a dog to make them even greater' she says.
Someone that might be very popular with Geronoimo and Feather is Barry John Crowe who took the title of most sausages made in one minute at a whopping 78.
The 28-year-old from Cavern, Ireland began helping his parents in the family's butchers shop aged 10 and has been perfecting his sausage-making skills ever since.
Barry now runs the family business and dreams that he'll make his parents proud. He credits his parents for instilling the confidence that remains with him today - allowing him to create an impressive range of 36 different sausage types, even including some of the chocolate chip and honey comb variety.

Another record breaking superstar is Betty Goedhart, the oldest person to perform the flying trapeze at 84 years and 249 days.
Betty, now 85, from California, has flown her way into the record books with the oldest performing female flying trapeze artist.
From a young age, Betty always believed that she could accomplish anything with hard work and determination – which is why she began trapeze classes at the age of 78.

Another octogenarian breaking records this year is 83-year-old Sumiko Iwamura from Tokyo, Japan.
A restaurant owner and cook by day, by night, Sumiko Iwamura transforms into rock-star DJ Sumirock at night, making her the oldest professional club DJ at 83 years, 188 days.
After her shift at the restaurant, Sumiko makes her way to Decabar Z for her DJ slot, but she's having too much fun to be tired, 'doing something totally different is energising' she says.
Sumiko never imagined becoming a DJ at this age, but since Sumirock's debut she hasn't looked back, she says 'try something and don't give up... there are opportunities lying around every corner'.

Tom Bagnall, 26, from Staffordshire, is the proud owner of the world's fastest jet-propelled go-kart, that travels at 112.29mph.
Building the kart took Tom a year to complete but his love of speed began at a young age and, in his own words, became an addiction.
He had taken an interest in engineering and tinkering away with mechanics in his workshop late into the night.
Tom's mantra is to take the slow and mundane, and supercharge them to achieve the fastest speeds possible, and with his jet-propelled go-kart, he has made a record-breaking start.
He broke the record on CBBC's Officially Amazing, in York on September 5 2017.

Another UK record holder is Elizabeth 'Betsy' Bond, 31, from Wiltshire, who has created the world's largest knitting needle at 14ft5in (4.4m) long.
Surprisingly, Betsy isn't an avid knitter but created the needles as part of an art exhibition.
By showcasing exactly what art students can accomplish, she was immensely proud to achieve her record and spark lots of conversation amongst her peers, she says 'Everybody has potential if you just keep striving and pushing forward. Give it a go, what's the worst that can happen?'

Away from knitting, Matt Denton, 45, from Winchester, takes a record for a robot he built.
The Animatronic Control System Specialist takes the record for the largest rideable hexapod robot at 9ft1 (2.8m) tall, and 16ft1 (5m) wide.
Matt's love of animatronics and engineering began at a very young age, when he received his very first LEGO technic kit and was cemented after a trip to the cinema to see Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back when he was eight years old.
Matt's spent his younger years fascinated with walking machines like the AT-AT's and fulfilled a childhood dream when he had the chance to work on Star Wars: The Force Awakens to create the fan-favourite, BB-8.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
