Last weekend author and investor Rob Moore broke the world record for the longest ever speech, smashing the previous record of 33 hours 46 minutes with an time of 46 hours and 39 minutes.
Rob dispatched tried and tested investment and business advice over three days and nights to snatch the Guinness World Record for the longest ever speech from Dr Pothula Srinivasa Brahmanand.
The rules set out by Guinness banned him from using video or audio recordings to fill in any gaps, giving him just one five minute break for every hour of speaking.
Usually delegates would pay upwards of £2,000 to attend one of Rob and business partner Mark Homer’s property events, but for this Record Attempt, Rob instead asked for donations to Sue Ryder’s Thorpe Hall Hospice Capital Appeal which is raising £6 million to build a new hospice, Rob managed to raise an impressive sum of £25,063.76.
Reflecting on his efforts, the Peterborough-based entrepreneur said: “In line with the current property boom, I wanted to share as many property investing strategies as I could to help entrepreneurs cash in. The problem for many is the cost of the equivalent training which would stand at almost £5,400. I saw this world record attempt as the perfect opportunity for me to give back to people who want to cash in on the boom, and for them to help me break a world record I’m so pleased to hold. My Nan passed away in a home recently so I do feel an empathy with Thorpe Hall and I’m so glad I could help.”
