Saudi Arabia has won Guinness World Records for boring achievements, such as having the ‘largest dental hospital’ after paying the firm in a new alleged ‘whitewashing’ ruse.
This week, GWR announced ten new awards for the country, a decision which has come under fire by human rights groups.
While records are usually interesting and unique, such as the longest beard on a living female and most consecutive visits to Disneyland, Saudi Arabia’s achievement are dull in comparison.
Their wins included ‘largest covered water reservoir for storing drinking water’, ‘largest multi-effect distillation desalination unit’ and ‘largest dental hospital’.
Saudi Arabia is seen as a ‘repressive’ state by human rights movements and the UN has recently expressed concern at the imminent execution of Abdullah Al-Derazi, who was a child at the time of his alleged offences.
