US Book Launch: Day 4

Tuesday 7 August
Manhattan NYC

Another early start, this time for Good Morning America! I did this show last year, when host Bill Weir broke the record for the highest pancake toss, so it was a real pleasure to be invited back, this time with Neil. We shared the show with a team of inline skaters, an American bald eagle, a dentist who could diagnose illness by looking at your teeth, and a grandmother who gave birth to her own twin grandchildren - a mixture almost as random as our very own book of records! Indeed, I must make a note to follow up the grandmother - I think this would make a fascinating record category: Oldest person to give birth to their own grandchildren!

Neil and I secured a slot at the end of the show, when Diane Sawyer asked some interesting questions of Neil's stature. In terms of all the interviewers who spoke with Neil, Diane asked some of the most pertinent and sensible questions, and the segment went really well. Diane was also keen to feature the result of our search for America's tallest man - the results of which will be announced on 8 November this year as part of GWR Day. Hopefully, you'll even see the results on Good Morning America!
