Alright, welcome to Louisville, Kentucky, where we just broke a Guinness World Records. Cornell Mack, my special guest today from Pennsylvania. Hey man, thanks for having
me. It was a lot of fun. It was for sure. And uh I guess I was the I M C to your life a little bit. You know I know what I was doing. Yeah. You threw in a little Pittsburgh Steelers jab at me and Yeah, and you came right back with
the
c well.
I got no, I got much to work with. Sympathy. But uh shout outs to Relco. So they wanted to showcase their engine against real life conditions and they couldn't have they couldn't have picked a more epic day because it rained. So you had wet grass.
How did the engine do and what what was the result? It did amazing. I mean, I wish that the people watching could, or if you're listening, that you could see this, but the grass really was over six inches in some places, and they brought it down to under two inches with one pass, no double cutting. And Haley did a great job uh cutting that grass and making some cash, I guess. Well, cutting that grass and setting record. Yeah, Guinness World Records. Yeah, for sure. And 14 minutes and 51 seconds. And we're talking in a And we're talking
an American football field, which is 120 yards, because you got 100 yards end zone to end zone. But as we know, end zones are 10 yards. Yep. So what's that field purdue? Or what one of them are painted weird
where people like get confused? Yeah, I don't know, but I it's not the Canada one. Don't get it confused with the 30R end zones.
Yeah, so you got you got 120 yards, and how far is a football field across?
53 yards and I think seven inches or something like that. Yeah.
So she went, took about 31, 32 passes.
How did the Guinness World Record lawn‑mower attempt unfold?
She just went back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. And the adjudicator, that guy was intimidated. He was he was. He had all his measures. Yeah, he's wearing a vest and had a tape measure and all kind of statistics. They don't play around with that guy.
Guinness World Records. No, and I gotta give Haley her props, man. We we got to try that lawnmower after the thing was over. And me personally, I've only used a sit-down mower one time ever. I'm I'm a stand-on guy. Yeah, yeah. Uh, and so when I did my three-point turn using the mower, I was like, wow, I she really did a great job based off of the crap job that I did. She was zipping around on that thing. And
how she got on the mower is Relco had a contest where hundreds of people applied to be the person who got to attempt this world record. So she just pitched her video of why they should choose her. And being a woman, I think there was some people who are like, you know, anyway, I was I was hearing it up a conversation in the back. She did so good. She did. I mean she would out mow most mow any I she she was just excellent on the mower. Her turns, her her lines were straight. She can mow with the best of them.
Yeah, she was serious too. She got some guns on her pushing. Her triceps were she was out there ripping it for sure.
Yeah. So the the Guinness World Record
after some suspense. So we we were wondering. I mean, the dude was like, you got to get the cameraman here. We was like, huh? And then he had to go around to different locations to check. He had this little like measuring stick to make sure that the grass was where he needed to be. Then he went into a tent, changed his clothes. He went from a vest to a blazer, and then he came out with a certificate and all of that. It was just cool to get to So I've seen that stuff on TV, Paul. And I've been, you know, when I was a kid looking at that Guinness World Book uh of World Records, but to get to see it happen in person was really cool.
