News in Briefs: Boy Dons 215 Pairs of Underwear to Set New Record
Filed under: In The News, Weird But True, Amazing Kids, Funny Stuff
We're not sure who wears the pants in Jack Singer's family, but we certainly know who wears the underpants.
Last Sunday, the Warwick, N.Y. boy spent his 10th birthday attempting to set a new Guinness World Record for wearing the most pairs of underwear, KABC reports. It took 18 minutes for his parents to slip on a record 215 pairs, though Singer had to lie down after the 195th pair because his feet were asleep. The previous record was 200 pairs, KARE11.com reports.
"I feel the most excited in my life," he tells the Times-Herald Record.
Instead of gifts, Singer asked for donations to help Marine Sgt. Eddie Ryan, who was injured in Iraq five years ago.
If there's anything we like better than a thoughtful kid, it's a thoughtful kid with a sense of humor!

D said...Good for him. I thought by the headline it was some nut, but to do this for charity is cool. And I imagine at 10 years-old, pretty funny. It's even funny for an old man to do it. Next year, I'll try to wear as many adult diapers as possible.
Good for him!

bruce Williams said...What is with 50% of these comments!?! A couple saw the humor in it, and the fact the 10-year old was doing it for donations for a war vet. 30% showed they were less mature than the 10-year old with negative comments, and then there were the absolute low-life sleazy-slime-balls spamming as usual apparently with AOL's blessing because the same azzholes post the same messages on every comment board that has not been outsourced to Facebook. Get the serial spammers off these comment boards!!! Please!?!
As for the 10-year old. he is a class act!!

It's all in good fun and glad he got the record!

PantyRaid said...The record may be stupid...but this kids got a great heart. Asking for donations for an injured solider instead of gifts. Glad he did set the record...but I hope his aspirations in life run higher than underwear.
