You might remember the time in the late 1990s, when students at Ecole Secondaire Thériault tried to set a Guinness world record for stuffing people into a Volkswagen Beetle.
Or a couple other attempts to make the book in the 1970s, when such things were all the rage.
Timmins Museum director-curator Karen Bachmann mentions a man who spent a lot of time sitting on top a pole in Hollinger Park. And then there was a bounce-a-thon.
“It involved a whole pile of young men from the community,” she says. “They had a trampoline and they bounced on the trampoline for a about a week and a half, and it was a 24-hour bounce-a-thon.”
“Some of those gentlemen I think are still in the community, so it would be really cool is other people could let us know what their memories are of that bounce-a-thon and if they have any photographs, because the museum would love that.”
If you’re one of those men, bounce into the museum.
