New Exhibition Reveals the Shocking Science<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Behind the World\u2019s Greatest Achievements<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

St. Louis \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>Open now open through April 14 at City Museum,\u00a0The Science of Guinness World Records<\/em>\u00a0r<\/strong>eveals the secrets behind some of the most astonishing GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS\u2122 to ever be set.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spread across 5,000 square feet in City Museum\u2019s Architecture Hall, the exhibit will let guests achieve the amazing as they break records across the multiple stations by learning how bodies react, focus, and endure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe exhibition was really inspired by the success of The Science of Ripley\u2019s Believe It Or Not,\u201d said Guy Labine, Chief Executive Officer of Science North. \u201cWe\u2019ve seen firsthand that people all over the world are hungry to be challenged, to be wowed, to expand their ideas about what human beings can actually do. We knew almost immediately that we were onto something big.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Certain to be an experience to remember for a lifetime, The Science of Guinness World Records<\/em> will leave visitors astonished as they discover exactly what goes into accomplishing the seemingly impossible. How does one develop the ability to do 36 consecutive pull-ups, using only their pinky fingers? What does it take for someone to create the world\u2019s smallest stop motion film? What possesses someone to learn how to solve not one but three Rubik\u2019s Cubes simultaneously?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Science of Guinness World Records<\/em> is co-produced by Science North, one of Canada\u2019s largest and most respected science centers, and Ripley\u2019s Entertainment, the entertainment and edutainment company founded by the great Robert Ripley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur record holders are simply the most incredible people you\u2019re ever going to meet,\u201d says John Corcoran, Director, Traveling Shows & Guinness World Records Attraction Development. \u201cThey defy belief and they often seem to defy physics and the nature of spacetime itself. But of course, what they\u2019re really defying is our limited sense of what a person can do with enough time, enough practice, and enough dedication.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat we\u2019re hoping to do with\u00a0The Science of Guinness World Records<\/em>\u00a0is to show people that as shocking as these accomplishments are, it\u2019s not magic. It\u2019s science. If one person can achieve the incredible, so can you. We want to inspire people of all ages to throw out their limiting beliefs and push themselves to achieve what the world tells them is impossible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
