With St. Patrick's Day coming this Friday, it was only fitting that we would learn that Gabriella Gerhardt of Wisconsin has just set another World Record.

Turns out, Gabby has the largest collection of 4-leaf clovers of anyone in the world.  Her official tally was 118,791.  She also holds the World Records for finding 887 four-leaf clovers in eight hours and another for finding 451 clovers in one hour.  On top of that she's got a couple of pending World Records for the largest certified collection of six-leaf clovers and the largest collection of seven-leaf clovers.

Yeah, these records are a little zany, but she's got more records than anyone I know.

There's actually a world record for just about everything. The folks at Guinness have been keeping track of both incredible and weird feats and facts for the entire world since 1955.

Who's got the stretchiest skin in the world? They've got a record for that. How about the widest mouth, longest fingernails, or the longest nose? There are Guinness records for all of those.

You can literally spend an entire day searching through the Guinness website and along with your giggles and gasps at some of the craziness, you might also learn something.

You might even find that some of the wildest, craziest records were actually set right here in the Bayou State.

We've got our share of what I would deem, "normal" records like the largest fruit cobbler and the heaviest grapefruit, but these seven really caught my eye.
