0:00:02 > 0:00:05# Officially, officially Officially amazing! #
0:00:05 > 0:00:06Ta-da.
0:00:06 > 0:00:09This is Officially Amazing, the show that brings you the most
0:00:09 > 0:00:11- fearless...- The most ferocious...
0:00:11 > 0:00:14And the most fantabulabumtious records in the world.
0:00:14 > 0:00:16And here's what's coming on today's show.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18Is "fantabulabumtious" even a word?
0:00:18 > 0:00:22Oh, Al, stop being so interriblematic.
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Can these eggs survive the might of this man's whip?
0:00:30 > 0:00:31And bowl plus belly
0:00:31 > 0:00:35plus helicopter plus ponytail equals what?!
0:00:35 > 0:00:38Find out later but first...
0:00:48 > 0:00:50SHE SCREAMS
0:00:51 > 0:00:55A trio of tremendous titans
0:00:55 > 0:00:56locked in battle to become
0:00:56 > 0:00:59the world's greatest record-breaking colossus.
0:01:01 > 0:01:06Introducing American Idol, US Ray,
0:01:06 > 0:01:08the beast from the East,
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Japan's Mr Cherry,
0:01:11 > 0:01:15and the crown jewel of the United Kingdom, Sizzling Steve.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17This is...
0:01:23 > 0:01:26Previously on Officially Competitive...
0:01:26 > 0:01:30Our heroes' hapless Hula Hooping laid shame on this great tournament.
0:01:30 > 0:01:35US Ray claimed the point by being the least rubbish.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38This time, they need to do better.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Despite what this may look like, we're not
0:01:40 > 0:01:43about to embark on a romantic soiree for six here in the
0:01:43 > 0:01:440C bunker.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47No, instead, we're all set and ready for today's record,
0:01:47 > 0:01:49and that's the record for the...
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Er, where's the light switch?
0:01:55 > 0:01:57- THUMP - Ow.- Oh.- Ooh.- Don't touch that.- Argh.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00- Oh.- Ow. Everyone just sit down on this sofa.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03Ey, Shires, that's me. I resent that.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05Oh, but you're so comfortable, Al.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Oh, somebody get a torch. Now.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11The last time we encountered blowing, Sizzler got the
0:02:11 > 0:02:12world record.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15So, with a record like this, you have to be a master
0:02:15 > 0:02:17of the wind. Are you?
0:02:17 > 0:02:20- Of my own wind, yes.- Good. Can you give me a demonstration?
0:02:20 > 0:02:23HE EXHALES SOFTLY
0:02:23 > 0:02:24OK.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27What you think is going to give you the edge over Mr Cherry and Ray?
0:02:27 > 0:02:31Just my past experience on being able to blow things in and out.
0:02:31 > 0:02:36Inspirational scenes, but don't forget my little man's big lungs.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38The one thing with this record is, you have to blow out
0:02:38 > 0:02:42the candles individually. So it's more about directional blowing.
0:02:42 > 0:02:44- How are your skills?- Pretty great.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46- Do you want to test them on this little red flag?- Let's do it.
0:02:46 > 0:02:49HE EXHALES
0:02:49 > 0:02:52That's a man that can decide which way he's blowing.
0:02:52 > 0:02:53Whatever.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56Cherry's here to blow up a storm.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59What attribute will help you to claim this record?
0:02:59 > 0:03:02Well, I often blow out candles on me
0:03:02 > 0:03:06mates' birthday cakes. We have races to blow out the last one.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09Of course, I always win. I am the champion.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13As always, there are rules.
0:03:13 > 0:03:19The candles must be at least 5cm tall and placed 10cm apart.
0:03:19 > 0:03:24Only one candle may be extinguished by each single blow.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26If a blow extinguishes more than one candle,
0:03:26 > 0:03:29they will all be disqualified.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33And the target for this brand-new record is 30 candles blown out
0:03:33 > 0:03:34in one minute.
0:03:34 > 0:03:39This is a very dangerous record, so we have a fire warden,
0:03:39 > 0:03:42smouldering John, on standby
0:03:42 > 0:03:44and in a Competitive first...
0:03:44 > 0:03:46KLAXON BLARES
0:03:46 > 0:03:47Hi, Ray.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50Usually I say don't blow it, but do that this time, all right?
0:03:50 > 0:03:53- Got it.- Three, two, one...
0:03:53 > 0:03:55KLAXON BLARES Go.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58- This is fast.- Come on, Ray.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00Ray's an elite athlete.
0:04:00 > 0:04:03His superior lung capacity is obvious.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06Breathtaking breath taking.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08You're going to get them all.
0:04:08 > 0:04:09Coming up on your turn.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12But Ray's come unstuck at the first corner.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14He blew out two candles with one breath.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Neither of them will count.
0:04:16 > 0:04:20That bend's not called the Devil's Fiery Hairpin for nothing.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23No, but it hasn't slowed Ray down.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25- What a performance. - Five, four...- Come on, Ray.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28..three, two, one, stop.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30- KLAXON BLARES - Yeah.- Oh.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32He didn't need the extra candles
0:04:32 > 0:04:34but that'll take some beating.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37Steve, time to prove you're full of hot air.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40And ever the innovator, Sizzler's chosen
0:04:40 > 0:04:42to blow anticlockwise.
0:04:42 > 0:04:43Could that prove crucial?
0:04:43 > 0:04:46- KLAXON BLARES - Go.
0:04:46 > 0:04:50Candle four won't go out. He doubles back but that's vital
0:04:50 > 0:04:52milliseconds seconds lost.
0:04:52 > 0:04:56Indeed, Haruka, but Sizzler's wind is blowing furiously fast.
0:04:56 > 0:05:02He's hitting top gear now. This might even be US Ray pace.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06And Sizzler glides round the Devil's Fiery Hairpin like he's on rails.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Distinguished extinguishing.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15- Five...- Come on, Steve.- ..four,
0:05:15 > 0:05:18- three...- Quick finish, quick finish. - ..two, one.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20- KLAXON BLARES - Stop.
0:05:20 > 0:05:21Another valiant attempt
0:05:21 > 0:05:25but Cherry-san is ready to blow them both away.
0:05:25 > 0:05:26Can we do this?
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Yes, we can do.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31BOTH: Yes, we can do. Yes, we can do.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34Can the great man's wind match his wordplay?
0:05:34 > 0:05:36- KLAXON BLARES - Go.
0:05:36 > 0:05:37Cherry's missed one already.
0:05:37 > 0:05:42Oh, no. Now he's blown out two candles with one breath.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46But he's still powering through, billowing, bellowing.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49Oh, but Cherry's double blown again.
0:05:49 > 0:05:50This could cost him.
0:05:50 > 0:05:54Cherry's flying around at full throttle. He's on fire.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56No, he's not, Haruka.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58Smouldering John's making sure of that.
0:05:58 > 0:06:01Is Cherry about to blow a full lap?
0:06:01 > 0:06:03Three, two, one.
0:06:03 > 0:06:05- KLAXON BLARES - Stop.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07Ooh, just one candle left.
0:06:07 > 0:06:12Exalted exhalation all round but who blew best?
0:06:12 > 0:06:16Shantha, has anyone secured a world record? It looked good to me.
0:06:16 > 0:06:17Yes, they have.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Yes, come on.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21I can confirm can confirm
0:06:21 > 0:06:24that all challengers beat the minimum requirement...
0:06:25 > 0:06:30..but all challengers had candles disqualified.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33The tension dial has hit stratospheric.
0:06:33 > 0:06:35In third place...
0:06:35 > 0:06:38with a total of 78 candles...
0:06:40 > 0:06:41..is Steve.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44Coming last, despite more than doubling the record target.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46And in first place...
0:06:46 > 0:06:51with a total of 88 candles...
0:06:51 > 0:06:53is Ray.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:06:57 > 0:06:59That's my dog.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00That's my dog.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02That's my dog. Yay.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04So Al's dog
0:07:04 > 0:07:08takes his first world record of the series. Woof.
0:07:08 > 0:07:15Cherry blew out 99 candles but had 16 disqualified for double blows.
0:07:15 > 0:07:20Ray only had four disqualified and is now top of the league.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22But who will win next time
0:07:22 > 0:07:25when our competitors dice with pyramids?
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Now a weirdly dangerous record.
0:07:31 > 0:07:33Huh? Argh!
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Oh, oh.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37CHEERING
0:07:37 > 0:07:40This hero, Zhou Pengcheng from China, is about to attempt the
0:07:40 > 0:07:43resplendent record for...
0:07:48 > 0:07:52Longest what? What in the... What are you talking about, Haruka?
0:07:52 > 0:07:53It's simple.
0:07:53 > 0:07:58Zhou will stick a rice bowl to his stomach by creating a vacuum.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00The bowl is attached to a cable
0:08:00 > 0:08:03which will hang from a helicopter to dangle him in the air.
0:08:03 > 0:08:07This is another one not to try at home.
0:08:12 > 0:08:18Look at that. Zhou's airborne like a beautiful oversized canary.
0:08:18 > 0:08:22No! Thank goodness for that safety harness.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26Zhou's stomach reverberates angrily.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28But look at this. He's going again.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31Zhou is a real showman.
0:08:31 > 0:08:35Look at his gorgeous mane of hair swaying in the evening breeze.
0:08:35 > 0:08:40Yes. You're watching a man use a piece of table crockery
0:08:40 > 0:08:44to hang from a helicopter at a ludicrously unsafe height.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46You're welcome, world.
0:08:47 > 0:08:50And he's been up there for over five minutes.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52This could last a while.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54- Mind if I go for a run?- OK.
0:08:54 > 0:08:55DOOR OPENS
0:08:55 > 0:08:59RUNNING FOOTSTEPS
0:08:59 > 0:09:00DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES
0:09:00 > 0:09:02PANTING
0:09:02 > 0:09:03- Still there?- Yep.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06- Shower time.- OK.
0:09:06 > 0:09:07WATER RUNS
0:09:07 > 0:09:11# Officially, officially Officially...amazing! #
0:09:13 > 0:09:17- He's down now, right?- No, and will you get dressed, please?
0:09:17 > 0:09:21Er, oh, yes, but not before trumpet practice.
0:09:21 > 0:09:24TRUMPET PLAYS
0:09:24 > 0:09:26- TRUMPET PLAYS FLAT NOTE - Argh.
0:09:26 > 0:09:32Thankfully, Zhou is coming down after 12 minutes and 2 seconds.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Well done, Zhou.
0:09:34 > 0:09:39Your rice bowl may suck but you most certainly do not.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41Now, I believe Ben has something...
0:09:45 > 0:09:47TWEET-TWEET
0:09:48 > 0:09:51IT ROARS Argh! Ow.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53Aaaaaaaargh!
0:09:53 > 0:09:57Ah, camping in the great British countryside.
0:09:57 > 0:10:01The twitter of birds, the humming of bees, and a little lunch.
0:10:01 > 0:10:02Sausages are ready.
0:10:02 > 0:10:06I just need to scramble me egg and we're good to go.
0:10:06 > 0:10:11Johnny Strange, you're the worst campfire companion ever.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14And you've made me burn me sausage.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16Typical.
0:10:16 > 0:10:21Meet multiple world record holder and whipping wonder Johnny Strange
0:10:21 > 0:10:26and his two-metre-long fearsome bullwhip, unnamed.
0:10:26 > 0:10:31The whip cracks at a supersonic 700mph and this...
0:10:31 > 0:10:32CRACK
0:10:32 > 0:10:35..is the noise of it breaking the sound barrier.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37Today, Johnny will attempt the record for...
0:10:41 > 0:10:44That whip could easily break a human bone so...
0:10:46 > 0:10:49You must have been in training breaking a lot of eggs.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52I have. I was lucky enough to get a tonne of out-of-date eggs
0:10:52 > 0:10:54donated from the local supermarket.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57- I bet they were a delight to work with. Rotten eggs.- Yeah.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00Here are the rules.
0:11:00 > 0:11:05Hen's eggs that are at least 6cm long must be used.
0:11:05 > 0:11:09They must be positioned at least 2 metres away from the contestant
0:11:09 > 0:11:13and only eggs that are completely broken will count.
0:11:13 > 0:11:18The target for this brand-new world record is 10 eggs in one minute.
0:11:18 > 0:11:19Let's get cracking.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Three, two, one.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24- KLAXON BLARES - Go.
0:11:24 > 0:11:25And Johnny's off.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Ooh.
0:11:27 > 0:11:31If Johnny's hand is just a millimetre off target,
0:11:31 > 0:11:34the whip will fall centimetres away from the egg.
0:11:34 > 0:11:35Don't let that egg beat you.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39Yes. He skimmed it. Yes.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41And he smashed it. Come on.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45But we're going to need a lot more cracking to trouble the record.
0:11:45 > 0:11:49- 30 seconds.- Halfway. We need to pick this up, Johnny. Come on.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53Johnny's working so hard but his whipping's wide of the mark.
0:11:53 > 0:11:54So close.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57Come on. This is not going well.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00Five, four, three...
0:12:00 > 0:12:02- Oh.- ..two, one.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04- KLAXON BLARES - Time.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07With 32 cracks of the whip but only one crack of an egg,
0:12:07 > 0:12:10Johnny's had a catastrophic first attempt.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12What happened? What went wrong?
0:12:12 > 0:12:14I think it's catching on the table at the front.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17OK. So it's something that we could maybe change up?
0:12:17 > 0:12:19- Yes.- Yeah, all right. So the whip was catching the
0:12:19 > 0:12:22table before reaching the eggs.
0:12:22 > 0:12:23For attempt number two, Johnny's
0:12:23 > 0:12:26moved them right back to the edge.
0:12:26 > 0:12:27Will it make a difference?
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Three, two, one.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32- KLAXON BLARES - Go.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35Oh. Yes. Oh. No. Yes.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Only his second whip, and Johnny
0:12:38 > 0:12:40obliterated that egg.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Oh, come on, Johnny.
0:12:42 > 0:12:43It's a good start.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Yes.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Yes, three.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50This is much better but can he keep it up?
0:12:50 > 0:12:53Yes, we got four. Yes.
0:12:53 > 0:12:57- Whoa. That egg stood no chance. - 30 seconds.
0:12:57 > 0:13:02Halfway through, and Johnny's left a trail of annihilated eggshells.
0:13:02 > 0:13:03Oh, come on, Johnny. It's looking good.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05Yes. And another. Yes.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07And another.
0:13:07 > 0:13:08Yes, come on.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10Yes, come on.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Oh, he's had a roll.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14An egg roll. Five in a row.
0:13:14 > 0:13:16Unbelievable.
0:13:16 > 0:13:18Come on. Yes.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21Oh. He's doing it for fun.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24- KLAXON BLARES - Time.- Yes.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26Put it there, Johnny.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28A truly cracking cabaret of
0:13:28 > 0:13:31world-class egg-whipping.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34Official adjudicator Mark checks the broken eggs.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36Only completely smashed eggs will count.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39Did Johnny break that target of ten?
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Today, he managed
0:13:41 > 0:13:4414 eggs. That's a brand-new Guinness World Record title.
0:13:44 > 0:13:46Put it there. Cracking work, Johnny.
0:13:46 > 0:13:49Johnny smashed it.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52Extraordinary scenes of EGGS-tremely EGGS-quisite,
0:13:52 > 0:13:54EGGS-ploding EGGS-citement.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Sorry, I just couldn't keep them in any longer.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59I EGGS-pect we'll see you next time
0:13:59 > 0:14:03with more EGGS-cellent EGGS-ercises like these.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05Ahem, sorry.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08# Well, our competitors handled the pressure of the candles with
0:14:08 > 0:14:10# A very fine windy display
0:14:10 > 0:14:12# They huffed and they puffed and raided enough
0:14:12 > 0:14:14# To blow the other two away
0:14:14 > 0:14:18# It started badly for Johnny Strange because the eggs were
