Sex is a strange enough activity on a normal day. Add competitive spirit, a camera and a bit of showmanship, and people start setting records nobody asked for.
One thing before we start: Guinness World Records refuses to track almost all of these categories. No penis size, no vaginal weightlifting, no ejaculation distance. So most of the records below are unofficial, and a few turn out to be little more than a good story. We tell you which ones.
1. Most queefs in one minute
A queef is vaginal flatulence: trapped air escaping with a very recognizable sound, usually during or after sex. Naturally, Howard Stern turned it into a contest.
The winner of his “queef championship”, a contestant named Abby, reportedly managed 93 in one minute. That is one and a half per second, not the three per second many websites claim. Even the year is disputed: IMDb lists the episode as a 2007 broadcast of Howard Stern on Demand, while most retellings say 2009.
2. The world’s largest penis
American Jonah Falcon has claimed a 13.5-inch (34 cm) erection since 1999. Claimed, because he has never allowed an independent measurement. His most famous story dates from 2012, when security staff at San Francisco airport pulled him aside for an extra pat-down because of a suspicious bulge.
Mexican Roberto Esquivel Cabrera went further and claimed 18.9 inches (48 cm). Medical scans showed that most of that length was stretched foreskin, the result of years of hanging weights from it. Not a record so much as a medical case.
3. The strongest vagina
Record-breaking body parts are not just a male obsession. In 2009, Russian Tatyana Kozhevnikova, then 42, lifted a 14 kg (31 lb) kettlebell using only her pelvic floor muscles.
She said she had trained for fifteen years, which makes her the ultimate advertisement for Kegel exercises and raises the obvious question of why. Guinness has no category for it, so the record is unofficial. Impressive, though, either way.
4. The longest masturbation session
San Francisco’s Masturbate-a-thon, a charity event organized by the Center for Sex & Culture, has been trying to take the shame out of solo sex since the 1990s. It also has an endurance category.
Masanobu Sato, an employee of Japanese sex toy maker Tenga, won it with 9 hours and 33 minutes and then improved his own mark to 9 hours and 58 minutes in 2009. Most articles still name him as the record holder, but in 2018 an American named Drake Hardy claimed 10 hours and 10 minutes.
5. The largest natural breasts
Annie Hawkins-Turner performs under the stage name Norma Stitz. Say it out loud.
The American is listed by Guinness World Records as having the largest natural breasts, with a bra size of 102ZZZ. This is one of the very few entries on this list that Guinness actually recognized and measured.
6. The largest breast implants
On the surgical end of the spectrum is German model Beshine, whose implants go beyond any standard bra sizing system.
There is a catch. Guinness does not keep a record for enhanced breasts, precisely because the category has no natural limit and a title would encourage dangerous surgery. Beshine holds her “record” on her own authority and that of the tabloids that keep repeating it.
7. Most sexual partners in one day
At the 2004 “World Gangbang Championship” in Warsaw, adult film actress Lisa Sparks had sex with 919 men in 24 hours, each of them allotted 45 seconds. Her record stood for two decades.
In January 2025, British OnlyFans creator Bonnie Blue claimed 1,057 men in twelve hours. In June that year, Lily Phillips announced she had topped it with 1,113. Both numbers are self-reported and neither has been independently verified, which is why Sparks still considers her record the only one that counts.
8. The farthest ejaculation
A man named Horst Schultz supposedly reached 18 feet 9 inches (5.7 meters) at a speed of 42.7 mph. The figure appears all over the internet, usually credited to Guinness.
Horst Schultz probably never existed. When MEL Magazine tried to trace the claim, the trail ended at a 1991 book about bodily fluids and a 2005 Yahoo Answers post. Guinness never had the category, and there is no date, no location and no witness. It is an internet legend that has been copied for thirty years.
9. Most orgasms in one hour
Sex researchers William Hartman and Marilyn Fithian of the Center for Marital and Sexual Studies in California recorded a woman who had 134 orgasms in an hour. The highest male score in their research was 16.
Treat those numbers with care. They come from a 1997 book, the underlying data were never published in a scientific journal, and critics point out that the researchers measured orgasms mainly by heart rate, which makes it hard to tell arousal from climax. A separate mention goes to British woman Lorna Harrison, who has persistent genital arousal disorder (PGAD) and once experienced orgasms for 24 hours straight. That is not an achievement but a painful medical condition.
10. The biggest orgy ever filmed
500 Person Sex, released in Japan in 2006, is generally described as the largest group sex film ever made. Director Yukitsugu Tsuchiya put 500 people in one hall for a 130-minute production.
Calling it an orgy is a stretch. The 250 couples only had sex with their own partner, in a tightly choreographed and synchronized setup that looked more like a gymnastics display than a party. It is probably the only record on this list where the logistics are more impressive than the performance.
