Record breaking belly fluff collection of Graham Barker weighs just over 22 grams
October 26th, 2010 - 12:10 am ICT by Aishwarya BhattBrisbane, Oct 25 (THAINDIAN NEWS) It is often said that build one should build their business around their hobby.
Well that is very true especially for an Australian man that has collected “belly button fluff” for the past 26 years.
The man, 45-year-old Graham Barker has managed to collect 22.1 grams of the fluff over the years. He has stored them in three glass jars and his efforts have been recognized by the officials of the Guinness Book of Records, who will record it as the most collection of belly button fluff.
That is not the best part of the news. The best part is that a museum is ready to give an undisclosed amount of money to Graham for his efforts. That is pretty much encouraging for someone who is just doing it as a hobby.
Graham insists that he is not addicted to picking the “belly button fluff”. He plans to continue with his hobby until his body can no longer support it. He targets to have another 5 jars of fluff before he eventually quits.
Graham says that he only spend few seconds each day collecting the fluffs. He does it before waiting for his bath water to warm up.
