In this modern technological age, SMS text messaging has become almost as useful as emailing. In essence, it is cheap, fast, quick and most cell phone companies provide the service. This is a fascinating fact … Kimberly Yeo Sue Fern, of Singapore, typed a pre-agreed 160 character text on her cell phone in 43.2 seconds on June 27, 2004. That translates to approximately 3.7 text characters ever second! She thus holds the World Guiness Book of Record for the fastest text message ever type (without predictive text, Treo keyboards etc.). See whether you can beat her time. If you can, contact The Guinness Book of Records. This is what she had to type:
The razor-toothed piranhas of the genera serrasalmus and pygocentus are the most ferocious freshwater fish in the world. In reality they seldom attach a human.

Fat texted, but not that fast.
