Worlds Biggest Couch Potato - Posted By gray929 (gray929) on 2nd Jan 08 at 2:40am
These people are nuts. You must go like blind or something.

You have to sit in front of a T.V. for almost 3 days. No sleeping. Wow.

Quote:
The participants, sitting in recliners in front of a dozen 42-inch high-definition plasma televisions and a couple of 14-foot HD projection TVs, will try to watch the most continuous hours of televised sports. They can order unlimited food and drinks, but can't sleep or leave their recliners except for restroom breaks once every eight hours.

They'll be shooting for the Guinness World Records mark for watching televised sports — 69 hours and 48 minutes straight, ESPN Zone said.

o mah goh! I could NOT! Do that!

Re: Worlds Biggest Couch Potato - Posted By Marc (cr0w) on 2nd Jan 08 at 2:48am
I could do that, provided it was on a super-fast computer with 50 monitors, so that i could watch the games while on MSN or doing work. {Tongue Out}

I could do it, If I could watch Anime, or Action Movies, for 3 days straight.

I would eat/drink less so that I don't have to go to the restroom allot ^_^ I would eat my normal 3 meals a day, and go my regular restroom break.

EDIT: I did this once when I was like 12, but instead of T.v. it was the computer, the 4th Night, I got off and fell asleep did not wake up until 2 days later.

Coffee wouldn't really be needed, though. Energy drinks have much more caffeine, and a lot of sugar. Provided you chain-drink them for three days straight, you'll stay awake just fine. And lose all of your teeth. {Smile}

If you had all these engry drinks thought wouldnt they make you want to stand up and run around etc,

Actually, that's a common misconception. Although they may give you a short "sugar rush", all energy drinks really do is keep you awake. {Wink}

That'd be my ideal too. I could give it a damn good go, but i'd need an internet connection there so i can check various bits and bobs too {Tongue Out}

Re: Worlds Biggest Couch Potato - Posted By Danny (schnooble) on 2nd Jan 08 at 12:17pm

Re: Worlds Biggest Couch Potato - Posted By tricky.cb (crazyblue) on 3rd Jan 08 at 1:02am
I'd vomit several times, fall asleep in boredom, and throw things at the tv. I can't stand watching TV anymore, I only have one because I have a 360 and without a tv it doesn't work {Unsure}

Re: Worlds Biggest Couch Potato - Posted By Danny (schnooble) on 3rd Jan 08 at 1:08am
would be awesome if you didnt need a TV tbh {Tongue Out} like you just played in your mind, or on a hologram {Grin}

If I was given a 3 good computers, one for design, one for surfing, and one for gaming. I could do it. I'd need energy drinks, and chicken! xD
