Minnesota Man Breaks Ice Cream Eating Speed Record In Ireland

James Clark from Spring Lake Park, Minnesota, appears to have set a new Guinness World Record for fastest ice cream cone consumption during a visit to Ireland. Clark ate a 130-gram ice cream cone in 24.72 seconds at Teddy’s ice cream shop in Dun Laoghaire, beating the previous record of 24.97 seconds. The shop posted Facebook video showing the cone being weighed before Clark’s attempt. Guinness World Records must still review and certify the achievement. If approved, this would mark Clark’s 35th Guinness World Records title. The record attempt took place at the famous Irish ice cream parlor, with documentation showing Clark successfully completed the challenge in under 25 seconds. (Story URL)
