LOS ANGELES: Three southern California men have broken a Guinness world record for continuous TV watching, in a special Plexiglass theater for 86 hours and six minutes.

Farris Hodo, Kevin Cood and Victor Lopez outlasted 97 other contestants to earn the record as the endurance contest concluded four days after it began three days ago at the Hollywood & Highland central courtyard.

Each of the three finalists was awarded a Guinness World Record certificate and 10,000 U.S. dollars in prize money.

They beat the Guinness record -- which was 86 hours -- by six minutes.

It was a dwarf/midget sex tape. They spend 75 hours just trying to get up onto the bed.
