Guinness Rishi had all his teeth removed so that he can stuff more straws in his mouth. ** ADVANCE FOR TUESDAY, SEPT. 4 ** Guiness World Records holder Guinness Rishi, whose first name was earlier ‘Har Parkash,’ holds straws in his mouth in an attempt to attain the Guinness record for the most straws to fit in a person’s mouth, at his home, in New Delhi, India, Aug. 10, 2007. In the United States, the Guinness book is a favorite of 10 year-olds, but in India, Guinness records are the stuff of national headlines. For millions in new India who don’t have access to earning prestigious degrees and staggering salaries, aiming for world records, no matter how ridiculous, provides a much-needed outlet in the rigid and hierarchical society, say world-beaters.
