Chef Dammy breaks Hilda Bassey's cooking marathon record.
Nigerian chef Hilda Bassey has been confirmed as the new world record holder for the longest cooking marathon, cooking for 93 hours and 11 minutes, beating the previous record of 87 hours and 45 minutes held by Indian chef Lata Tondon. Bassey cooked for four days, producing almost 100 pots of food, but was penalized for an error in her scheduled rest breaks. Her record attempt was so popular that it crashed the Guinness World Record site for two days.
