Beer mat flipping records broken

Beer mats Rex 

A man from Suffolk has broken a hat-trick of world records for flipping beer mats.
Dean Gould, 45, flipped and caught 35 beer mats with two fingers whilst he was blindfolded, more than doubling the previous best of 16.
He also set a new 'speed flipping' record with 800 successful flips in just 41.06 seconds, reports the Telegraph.
The third record involved catching 108 mats after dropping them from his elbow, beating the old 'snatch' record of 107.
Mr Gould added the three records to his previous tally of 13 Guinness world record entries, which include licking and sticking 235 stamps to envelopes in five minutes.
He also holds the record for eating 113 sweetcorn kernels with a cocktail stick in three minutes, and catching 341 one penny coins from his elbow.
Gould said: "It was great to break three records and a really good event.
"It was a wonderful atmosphere in the pub and people really enjoyed the day."
