A couple of weeks ago, kiwis of many ethnicities came together in their thousands at Eden Park. They were there to perform Ka Mate, led by the kaitiaki of that haka, Ngāti Toa. For those who prefer to avoid YouTube and their DataFarming, I posted a copy of the Stuff video about it here;

One purpose of this gathering was to take the Guinness World Record for haka performance back from the French.

Did you know the longest train in the world is the BHP Iron Ore Train in Australia? Spanning an incredible 7,352 meters (4.57 miles), this record-breaking train consists of over 682 ore cars and is powered by 8 powerful diesel-electric locomotives. On June 21, 2001, this engineering marvel traveled 275 km (171 miles) from Newman and Yandi mines to Port Hedland, showcasing the impressive capabilities of modern rail transport.

Did you know that Carleton County, New Brunswick, Canada is home to both the world’s longest covered bridge *and* the world’s shortest covered bridge?

The Hartland bridge is 390 meters long and carries one lane of traffic over the mighty Saint John’s River. Meanwhile, in nearby Wakefield, the world’s shortest covered bridge is over 700 centimeters long and carries a few people over a rocky gorge separating the Irving gas station and the burned-out remains of the Covered Bridge Potato Chip Company.

Covered wooden bridge in New Brunswick, Canada, carrying one lane of road traffic over the Saint John’s River into Hartland. The sign says it’s the world’s longest, at 1282 feet. (The sign was made prior to Canada switching to the metric system.)
The self-proclaimed world’s shortest covered bridge in Wakefield, New Brunswick, Canada. The sign says it’s 24 feet long. Someone has put benches mostly blocking each entrance, probably because the Covered Bridge Potato Chip Company that used to be on the far side has since burned down.

Cosmonaut Oleg Kononenko has set a new world record for the most time spent in space. Surpassing the previous record held by Russian cosmonaut Gennady Padalka, Kononenko achieved this milestone during his fifth space flight.

Kononenko surpassed the achievement of Russian cosmonaut Gennady Padalka who spent 878 days, 11 hours, 29 minutes and 48 seconds in space throughout five missions (1998-2015).
