>> RACHEL: Welcome back, it’s time for Chompers, your morning and night toothbrushing show. 


It’s World Records Week, and tonight we’ve got the answer to the quiz from this morning.


Start brushing on the top of your mouth on one side, and brush the inside, outside, and chewing side of each tooth.. 


>>KIDS: 3, 2, 1 brush!

>> RACHEL: Our question was:


What’s the largest number of people who brushed their teeth together?  Same time, same place? 


[BRUSHING SOUNDS GROW LOUDER UNDER THE FOLLOWING:]


>> RACHEL: Is it 145 people...


23,615 people.... 


Or 


400,546 people?

[DRUMROLL]


>> RACHEL: The answer is…23,615 people. 23,615 people from a city called Porur, in India. 


Switch your brushing to the other side of the top of your mouth…

It’s like if all the people from one town were all meeting somewhere to brush their teeth at the same time! Like a toothbrushing party! 


[TOOTH BRUSHING SOUNDS]

Switch your brushing to the bottom of your mouth…

I wonder what other world records there are


>>JASMINE: Oh I have a list of world records right here!

There is  the largest underwater human pyramid. The most dominoes stacked in 30 seconds. (SFX) The most 500-ml bottles balanced on one finger. The most noodles…(fading out)


>>JASMINE: Hey ...Ok  time to switch to the other side of the bottom of your mouth, and don’t brush too hard. 


[SWITCH BELL]



>> RACHEL: The longest dance underwater. The most M&Ms eaten in 1 minute blindfolded using chopsticks.The most Post-It Notes attached to one face in 1 minute. The most underpants put on in 1 minute. The most socks put on in 1 minute. The fastest time to butter 10 slices of bread. The farthest distance to blow a pea. The most apples crushed with the bicep in 1 minute! The fastest to swim in pool of…(fading out)
