A 14-year-old girl, Rachael Baby Yue, managed 157 skips in just 30 seconds, thus giving Singapore yet another stupid world record. Ok, maybe I'm a bit hard on the girl but as I have said earlier, Singapore do NOT need stupid records.
Rachael Baby Yue's achievement will now be sent to the Guinness World Record...so what? How many people will remember the record in a week time. The record-breaker said that she had trained hard for this attempt, I believe her. It is a very difficult record to break and I am glad for her, but it does not change one thing...it is still a stupid record. The Health Promotion Board awarded a prize to her for the record-breaking attempt; that is good, she deserve it. Now if only they will give rewards for world records that's not so stupid.
