about guinness world records, are there any issues or conflicts about the records?

Question

please give examples with sources if you have but it's okay even if you don't give the source

Answer 1

Sometimes with records about age, it's hard to verify without the presence of paper work. I know that there have been some conflicts about that, because birth certificates weren't always available back in the day in different countries.

Furthurmore, some other issues involve what qualifies as a category, since what qualifies as a category is completely subjective to Guinness' terms.

Answer 2

Yes it seams that way..
