Heaviest vehicle pulled over a level 100 feet.

In this photo of the record holder for the heaviest vehicle pulled over a level 100 feet. The fire truck weighs 57,243kg (126,200lb).
I was torn between this photo and the record holder for the fastest 100 meter hurdle run  wearing swim fins. You can see those two and 12 other new records in this year's edition of the Guinness Book of World Records at The Guardian.

Longest finger nails in the world.

SALT LAKE CITY A Salt Lake City woman who was in Guinness World Records for her long fingernails has lost them in a car accident. Lee Redmond suffered serious injuries in the Tuesday crash.
Redmond was the current Guinness record holder, with nails that hadn’t been cut since 1979. Her nails measured a total of more than 28 feet long in 2008, with the longest nail — on her right thumb — stretching 2 feet, 11 inches, according to the Guinness Web site.
Salt Lake County Sheriff’s Lt. Don Hutson said Redmond was ejected from an SUV, the Deseret News reported Thursday on its Web site. Her injuries were not thought to be life-threatening.
