Theres a word for it

Refusing to accept a perfectly legitimate record unless impossible conditions are met because it beats one of yours, that is. Its called "cheating".

Hang on a minute...

I thought the only ones that could officially call a world record a world record was the "Guinness Book of Records", in which case the Brit just has to ring then up and pay the train fair (and surely a couple of rounds). The finns would then have to fly them over...evening out the costs.

Who said the finns could rule the roost anyway?

By the way - I've just throw mine and it traveled 150m +/-...but that was from the 35th floor of the high rise I'm staying in in Mexico...you know, altitude, thin air and all that..

Do you think the move was justified?
