    If anything makes you think "WTF???", it has to be this.

    The Guiness book of records has a lot to answer for. :rolleyes:

    A Taiwanese theme park has dropped a plan to use braids of 320,000 pieces of human hair to lift an elephant, abandoning its attempt to create a new Guinness World Record.

    A United Daily News report said the decision was made after criticism the act could scare the animal.

    The Naughty Boy Theme Park had planned to tie the human hair into a sling device and attach it to a crane to lift a 6-ton elephant to mark the opening of a wildlife zoo, the paper said.

    Instead of the elephant, it said, the park would use the braids to lift up 6 tons of woods and rocks.
