Guinness World Records Primetime was a show where people compete in unusual stunts in order to win the ultimate prize: their name in the Guinness Book of World Records.

These new record attempts included many unusual or bizarre categories such as a 300-pound tumor, squirting milk from one's eye, covering oneself with bees, sitting in a tub of snakes, regurgitating, burping, setting oneself on fire, eating metal, worms, and ketchup, kissing cobras, acting as a human speed bump, and entering a coffin full of cockroaches. Most of these attempts never found their way into the Guinness Book. Lots of famous people did indeed appear on that show.

Not only did this show have crazy stunts, but also documentary footage of other unusual record-setting events such as world's largest tumor and a person with their heart on the outside of their chest.
