Lucknow school sets world record for highest student
enrolment in year
London, September 13 (ANI): The City Montessori School in Lucknow, India, has been included in
the latest edition of Guinness Book of World Records for the highest number of students being
enrolled in a year.
It made a record enrolment of 39,437 pupils for the 2010-2011 academic year, the Daily Mail
reported.
Among others to find a place in the 2013 edition is Popeye lookalike Moustafa Ismail and his
monstrous biceps, and a man with the tallest mohican hairstyle, measuring a towering 3ft 8in.
Johanna Quaas, an 86-year-old retired PE teacher from Leipzig, Germany, was named the oldest
gymnast while Egyptian-born Moustafa Ismail got recognition for having the largest ‘guns’ – biceps
and triceps – with a circumference of 25.5in.
The 24-year-old bodybuilder, now living in Franklin, Massachusetts, has arms with a greater
circumference than the average human head.
London-based sumo wrestler Sharran Alexander, who weighs 203.21 kg (32 stone), was also named
as the world’s heaviest sportswoman.
Among the new edition’s animal-based records are new bests for the shortest bull and the tallest
dog, a Great Dane measuring 44in from foot to withers.
Archie, a 29-month-old Dexter breed bull owned by a County Armagh-based farm, measures just
76.2 cm (30in) from hoof to withers.
Other records in the 57th edition of the book include the lowest roadworthy car – a vehicle created
by students and teachers in Asakuchi, Japan, which measures 45.2cm (17.79in) from the ground to
its highest part.
Being published in 22 languages in more than 100 countries, the 2013 Guinness World Records is
expected to sell around 2.7 million copies and documents numerous new extremes relating to the
human body. (ANI)
