I hope his dog is found not guilty.
a steer as he has been castrated, this means he is more easy going and less dangerous than other bulls.
A "gentle giant" cow has officially been named the worlds tallest after reaching a staggering 6ft 1in.
The large bovine called Tommy lives in Massachusetts USA with his owners Fred Balawender and Laurie. The 13-year-old cow has lived on the property in Cheshire since he was just a day old after he was rescued from an auction at a dairy farm. Brown Swiss are a typically large breed, but father and daughter duo Fred and Laurie couldn't believe it when Tommy just kept on growing.
Tommy stands at 1.87m and is recognised by the Guinness World Records as the World's Tallest Living Steer. His appetite lives up to his size, consuming a whopping 13kg of dry grain, more than 34kg of hay and 150 litres of water per day. He also loves apples, but his favourite snack is a cinnamon bun. However, Tommy is too tall to fit in the farm's 7ft cattle trailer, so there is no knowing how heavy he truly is.
While Tommy's sizes is staggering, he isn't the tallest cow that has ever live. Knickers, a Holstein Friesan from Australia claimed that title standing at 6ft 4in and weighing 1.4 tonnes. Sadly Knickers died in 2020.

She seems graceful and she's got a very kind smile.She's so cute!
I guess she is pretty much a megastar in India.
I got 'snogged in the face' by an extremely short woman just after I'd moved to my home town but when I was still with my ex. We were in a nightclub and these things happen. I stopped her, politely explained I was in a relationship, she didn't know so apologised and we didn't make a big deal about it. She now lives on the same street as me, she's only a couple of inches above dwarfism I reckon. She's very cool though, into heavy metal, has an ace and genuine personality, a very credible job and a teenage Son nowadays. She's also got an allotment which I'm envious about. Me and the Mrs have been sourcing her very large empty plastic bottles for next year in case we all get a heat wave because there's no running taps at her sight apparently.I agree with all past comments ... but we should also remember that she's a human being, with agency, and not an object - as that git P.T. Barnum would've considered her.
He'd have wanted her and Tom Thumb to breed (in his eyes) so he could make more money.
Before anyone jumps on me for being too cynical, listen up - I personally think she's 'cute' and good for her, for existing. Could she decide to act for others who are ... special like herself? I hope so. Her choice.
I look forward to hearing more from her!

Fair point. I stopped reading/buying The Guinness Book Of Records when they started dumbing down in the 90's to become more relevant to 'the kids' so it became boring stuff like 'the most selfies taken in an hour', the quickest texting and so on.Are they trying to 'trigger' those with some versions of OCD?
It degraded when it lowered it's requirements and people could make their own 'World Record'...
I dated a girl when I was a 18 who's Grandmother was in the GWR book for having the most recorded children ever .. Mrs McNaught .. from memory the Grandmother was no longer alive, I never met her but if anyone can track those details down I'd be grateful. I think her first name was Georgina. Her kids were used in an old Kellogg's cornflakes TV advert.Not just people, there's a lot of marketing in record setting nowadays. (To be fair, there were always firms producing eg a large pie/cheese/miscellaneous foodstuff to get in the local press, but it's a GWR strategy now if you look on the website)
I've followed the 'tallest lego brick tower' record for many years - anyone remember Milton Keynes's record-holder from 1980? so i was disappointed when this attempt didn't make it into the book. The report says there was no GWR invigilator present, but that wouldn't have been essential if the team could produce independent evidence of the claimed height. I wonder if the issue was that some non-Lego bricks were used? as prevented their previous attempt being accepted.
I think the record should be for the 'tallest building brick tower' rather than a specific brand. But that's not going to happen.

Thanks Steven. That's the lady. The family ended up moving to Tamworth after one of them had an altercation with some bad boys which is where I met the grand daughter and started dating her.Not sure if this is the one:
'Margaret McNaught 1945 (c.) Ms McNaught (born 1923), of Balsall Heath, Birmingham, gave birth to 22 children, 12 boys (2 of them died in infancy) and 10 girls, all single births.'

Thanks but I dated her grand daughter for two years so that's not something I'd just forget! lol ..one of Mrs McNaught's sons's was the father of my then girlfriend. I can't remember his name sadly (edit: I've just remembered, it was Jim). He told me about that Kellogg's cornflakes advert where they were all paid to sit at a long table with a prop over sized packet of cornflakes, the advert explaining who they were. I've never seen the advert myself so if anyone can find it before I can, I'd be hugely grateful.Well remembered Swifty. Mrs McNaught was in the GBR from the early 70s through to the late 90s. The 1997 edition has a photo of her with all twenty surviving children.
Was her end goal to promote hand washing to the public?. Fair play to her.Woman Hospitalised While Attempting Guinness World Record 50-Hour Hand-Washing Marathon
Subair Enitan, a student at Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) in Nigeria, captured attention after embarking on an extraordinary endeavour to set a Guinness World Record for a 50-hour hand-washing marathon.
However, the ambitious attempt took an unexpected turn as Enitan landed in the hospital after 48 hours into the marathon.
In a video circulating on various online platforms, Enitan was lying on a hospital bed with her hands covered in powder.
Nonetheless, Nigerians applauded her dedication and resilience in pursuing the remarkable milestone.

I think I knew one of her sons. He was a porter at my uni hall of residence.I dated a girl when I was a 18 who's Grandmother was in the GWR book for having the most recorded children ever ..

Was his name James aka Jim? (he's passed away now) .. moved to Tamworth? .. he's the only direct descendent I knew not including his daughter I was dating.I think I knew one of her sons. He was a porter at my uni hall of residence.
I honestly can't remember it was such a long time ago. I knew him in London a d was told that his mum had the GWR for the greatest number of children.Was his name James aka Jim?

I'd contact my ex to ask her more but that would be a bit weird because I broke up with her around '91. She's got in touch with me since but that was all a bit awkward. On a happier note, she worked at Drayton Manor Park and Zoo (a rite of passage growing up in Tamworth) so we never had to pay to go in at the time.I honestly can't remember it was such a long time ago.
