US shop owner stuffs mouth with 16 roaches in record bid!Melbourne, Oct 27 : An American pet shop owner is just a step away from entering the famed Guinness World Records after he stuffed 16 Madagascar hissing cockroaches into his mouth.

Each roach was more than 6 cm long.

Although, Sean Murphy, of Lansing, Michigan, has scored well above the previous mark of 11, his effort still awaits official certification by the Guinness.

Murphy got a "big surprise" when he mouthed 16 hissing roaches instead of 12 as he had thought, reports the Daily Telegraph.

And he is already planning to better his record to 20 next year. (ANI)
