Alastair Galpin
took to world record-breaking in 2004 after being inspired by a record-setting rally driver in Kenya. What began as a hobby soon escalated into an active publicity pursuit. Today, he promotes the work of social and environmental causes. For these purposes, the most fitting game plans are chosen; then world titles are attempted and frequently created.

Television programme ideas
We have experience of working with television
production teams from around the world - can we help you?
If you are a TV talent scout or production team looking for new programme ideas, we have some sample synopses as to how the exciting world of records can be used to create a TV programme which adds a new twist to teaching maths, sciences and even politics.
We can also work with potential advertisers to create challenges based around specific products - which are ideal for product launches, or companies looking to break into new markets. For example, see how successful the world record for blowing a Malteser the furthest distance with a straw has proved (encouraging lots of others to try to beat the record).
