But why?

I'm not sure what is stranger: Having a Turkish man squirt milk 9.2 feet out of his eye for a Guinness record, or knowing that Guinness World Records already recognized this effort as record-worthy. On second thought, someone needs to take over the Guinness World Records office and restore order. There simply cannot be a record for every stupid human trick. I drew the line way before milk-out-of-the-eye-squirting.
