    When was the Guinness Book of World Records first written?

    Question #54172. Asked by joezhou300. (Jan 17 05 10:43 PM)

    August 1955 - apparently to help solve arguments in pubs (despite there being no Trivia quiz nights in those days)! Sourced from www.guinnessworldrecords.com/facsimile/

    I have been trying to find this person's name online, but I cannot. I saw him in the Guinness Book of World Records. He was able to speak, write and read the most languages ever, like 100 or something, I can't remember, and he worked for the UN. Does anyone have a Guinness book and can find his name or show me a website? Thanks.
