I’m Attempting To Break The World Record For The Longest Duration Touching Tongue To Nose

When my friend was diagnosed with cancer for the second time, I knew I had to do something.

But I didn’t know what.

And then I was flicking through a Guinness Book of Records and saw some guy touching his tongue to his nose. He’d set a world record of just over 14 minutes.

Finally, my big nose and long tongue would come in for something useful!

So, I started training.

Then, I set up a website for people to donate to my friend and learn more:

I also made a video with my son that was part Rocky training montage, part Funniest Home Videos.

And on Monday May 30 at 8pm I’m making my official attempt. In my training, I’ve been able to do 35 minutes easily. So hopefully I can make a new record of over an hour!

It’s so stupid.

But for a really good cause.

I hope it makes you smile!

Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some prefer to refer to me as Diane, Deanna, and even Liana sometimes), and I am a Community Post Moderator Lead for Bored Panda. As my position title states, I am one of the people (employed Pandas for bamboo) over here who work with the community side of things on this website to ensure all is well, and while at that, I also help various creators and artists get recognition for the incredible work they do by connecting them to a large worldwide audience. Other than that, outside of work, you can find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making a pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, concerts, and cats (heavy on that, because I am a cat mom).
