YouTube group BomBom TV has taken on a slime challenge for Guinness World Records Day (GWR Day) November 8th, 2018.

The group is familiar with the substance having used it in previous science experiment videos with one member, Yocchi, making slime on numerous occasions Yocchi calls himself “the slimer” and found a way to put his slime expertise to the test by attempting two record titles for GWR Day.

For the solo attempt, Yocchi had to beat the previous record of 2.23 m (7 ft 4 in). Despite a slight fluster during the attempt, he had managed to stretch the slime to 3.87 m (12 ft 8.36 in), thus breaking the record.

“If anyone ever beats my record, I’ll take it off them straight away,” he declared

For the group attempt, eight members from BomBom TV had to stretch a slime weighing 2 kg to the length of at least 5 m. Learning from Yocchi’s solo attempt, the team came up with a great strategy, where some members pick up the slime and others stretch them.

While they were able to stretch the slime to impressive lengths, some members did not let go of the slime after 30 seconds. Because of this, their first and second attempts were unfortunately disqualified.

For the third attempt, the team was careful and let go of the slime well before 30 seconds had passed. And with an impressive length of 13.78 m (45 ft 2.51 in), their great team effort was awarded a Guinness World Records title.

Members were ecstatic after receiving two official certificates and thanked Yocchi for creating the “perfect” slime for the attempt.

“I’m glad we’ve been making slimes all these days,” replied Yocchi.
