Guinness World Record has finally certified Nigerian chef, Hilda Effiong Bassey, aka Hilda Baci, who broke the record for the longest cooking marathon by individual
Recalled that Hilda Baci last month, cooked for 100 hours non-stop, breaking India’s Lata Tondon’s 87 hours 45 minutes record of uninterrupted cooking in the process.
On Tuesday, the record body finally certified her as the new record holder for the longest cooking marathon (individual).
In a video on her Instagram Story, Baci was seen in tears as she received the news about her new achievement.
Hilda attempted to set a record of 100 hours, however, almost seven hours were deducted from her final total because she mistakenly took extra minutes for one of her rest breaks early on in the attempt.
Guinness World Record tweeted,
“After reviewing all the footage, we’re delighted to announce that Hilda Baci is the new record holder for the longest cooking marathon (individual)
“Watch the video to find out the official time we’ve awarded Hilda and read the full explanation below.”
