Guinness World Records Primetime (AKA Guinness Primetime) is a TV show based on the Guinness World Records, and aired on the Fox television network from 1998 to 2001.[1] It was hosted by Cris Collinsworth[2] and Mark Thompson and reported on existing record-holders or on new record attempts. When the program featured profiles of existing Guinness World Record holders, it often combined in-studio segments with on-location reports.[3]

These new record attempts included many unusual or bizarre categories such as a 300-pound tumor, squirting milk from one's eye, covering one's self with bees, sitting in a tub of snakes, regurgitating, burping, setting one's self on fire, eating metal, worms, and ketchup, kissing cobras, acting as a human speed bump, and entering a coffin full of cockroaches. Most of these attempts never found their way into the Guinness Book.
