Skydiving Text Messaging Record Attempt

Fastest Text Messaging While Skydiving
This world is full of odd and interesting stuffs. That's why there are so many weird world records in Guinness World Records database! Probably a new record will be added to the list, as on December 19 a team of 10 professional skydivers text messaged while free falling from 12,000 feet outside the Los Angeles city limits at the Samsung Mobile XTREME TEXTING event.

The skydivers used five different Samsung Mobile messaging phones with full QWERTY keyboards. The challange was captured in the air by two aerial videographers and two additional videographers on the ground. Now the video has been sent to the Guinness World Records for judgment. If the feat gets a green signal from the official judge, "Fastest Text Messaging While Skydiving" will be a new entry into Guinness World Records.

What you think about the attempt? Definitely it was a difficult one, as the skydivers got only one minute to text message the following phrase while free falling 12,000 feet above ground:

"The razor-toothed piranhas of the genera Serrasalmus and Pygocentrus are the most ferocious freshwater fish in the world. In reality they seldom attack a human."
