Record Breaking

Record breaking refers to the act of surpassing or exceeding an established record in a specific field or activity. This can involve achieving a milestone, performance, or measurement that is greater than the previous best, which is often officially recognized by organizations such as Guinness World Records or other governing bodies. Record breaking can occur in a wide range of areas, including sports, arts, science, and other competitive events. It often involves rigorous measurement and verification to ensure the achievement is legitimate and credible. The term can also imply a significant shift in standards, indicating that the new record is not only superior to its predecessor but may set a new benchmark for future attempts.
