KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) - A Malaysian woman has broken a world record by enduring 32 days enclosed in a glass box with 6,069 scorpions, suffering seven stings in the process, her sponsor claimed Tuesday. Nur Malena Hassan, 27, will remain in the case, on display in a shopping mall in the eastern city of Kuantan, until Saturday, said Bohari Rahmat, whose biscuit company sponsored the stunt. Late Monday, Nur Malena surpassed the previous record held by Kanchana Ketkeaw from Thailand, who spent 31 days in a glass box with 3,400 scorpions, Bohari said. “We don’t want her to lose focus, thinking that this is enough,” Bohari said. “If we can reach 36 days, it will be more difficult for someone else to beat us next time.”

—Gotta admit, it does make me want to go out and buy biscuits.

I hereby declare that nobody will come up with anything weirder than this. Well, for the rest of the day anyway. :smiley:

A little over a month trapped with a lunatic? Pah.

Still, she’s been stung seven times? Has anyone spoken to her recently? She may be cheating, is all.

Boy, kind of makes that David Blaine guy look like a sissy.

Besides, I just didn’t get that urge to buy biscuits while David Blaine was in his glass box.

I had to re-read the OP, in hopes I got it wrong. The woman, not the scorpions “will remain in the case, on display in a shopping mall”. Ew! Who thought a box of scorpions was a way to get people to buy biscuits?

Biscuits/scorpions… yeah, I can see that. Sure.

Hey, if they count by scorpion-days, ol’ Nur kicked Kanchana’s ass, 194,208 to 105,400. They won’t have to go for the 36 days. Just dump in more scorps.

Wow, trapped in a box with 6,000 renditions of “Rock You Like A Hurricane” going on at once.

What?
