Question

    The Guinness Book of World Records（《吉尼斯世界纪录大全》） is always full of amazing people and things. These amazing people show us their fantastic abilities.

	My name is Paddy Doyle. I am a British. I can do 1,940 push-ups（俯卧撑） in one hour. I only use one hand and put the other hand on my back. I have done a lot of exercise to do this. But I feel it is worthwhile to get the record.
	My name is Bernd Schmidt. I am a German. I am 47 years old. I have the biggest mouth in the world! I can put a Big Mac hamburger in my mouth. It is 8.78 cm between my upper teeth and lower teeth!
	I am John Farnworth. I am 30 years old. I come from the United Kingdom. I am a soccer freestyler（自由式射手）. I can kick the football into the wall 28 times in 30 seconds! No one in the world is faster than me.
	I am Maxwell Day. I’m from London. I am 17 years old. I can turn my feet 157 degrees（度）. This is the largest degree that people can do so. In fact, I need to wear special shoes because my feet change direction on their own!
