"I am not surprised he | | failed," his wife said afterwards. | | "He's really a very quiet man and | | doesn't even shout at me." | | | | In August of the same year Mr. Paul | | Anthony failed to break the record for | | continuous organ playing by 387 hours. | | | | His attempt at the Golden Fish Fry | | Restaurant in Manchester ended after 36 | | hours 10 minutes, when he was accused | | of disturbing the peace. "People | | complained I was too noisy," he said. | | | | In January 1976 Mr. Barry McQueen | | failed to walk backwards across the | | Menai Bridge playing the bagpipes. "It | | was raining heavily and my drone got | | waterlogged," he said. | | | | A TV cameraman thwarted Mr. Bob Specas' | | attempt to topple 100,000 dominoes at | | the Manhattan Center, New York on 9 | | June 1978. 97,500 dominoes had been set | | up when he dropped his press badge and | | set them off. | | | | -- Stephen Pile, "The Book of Heroic | \ Failures" / ----------------------------------------- \ ^__^ \ (oo)\_______ (__)\ )\/\ ||----w | || ||
