The ramblings of a madman: Records


Before 'records began', I take it every human achieving a feat of some kind, and every weather condition that occurred globally was literally making and constantly breaking records?

How was this transition made accurately I ask?!!

Who exactly recorded the first record of something? And was his family name Guinness?

This whole concept of official records is a nonsense. It's purely based from who has the means and know how to access the official global recorder of records.

If Usain Bolt wasn't pushed through the ranks of his official national athletics association, and thus sponsored by numerous conglomerates who funded his development and paid for him to travel across the world to compete in 'recorded' track events that would clock and record his time to a millisecond.

These events only inviting guys who had stumbled across the same chances and fortunes Usain had stumbled on... for this to be logged into the history books as if the other 6 billion people on the planet were completely irrelevant, and pretty much not important enough to even consider.

Surely, Mr Usain Bolt would be still running about in Jamaica out running cars and buses oblivious to the fact, aswell as would be the rest of the world?
