In a note from reader Penny, she tells us this morning that Samsung Mobile is attempting to set a Guinness World Record… Check this out:

Samsung Mobile is attempting to set the Guinness World Record for “Fastest Text Messaging While Skydiving” on Friday, December 19. A team of professional skydivers will text message while freefalling from 12,000 feet outside the Los Angeles city limits.

Can you say rediculous? I can! Gotta love a silly/fun PR stunt. Good news is we should have a beat on pictures and video of the event as soon as they become available… So stay tuned on the 19th for some crazy pics and vids of this Guiness World Record attempt from Samsung Mobile.

Thanks Penny!
