Introducing Carlos Silver, the Dominican who attempted to set a world record with 106 hours of singing, but was denied.

Carlos Silver, a Dominican singer, was tragically prevented from breaking the Guinness World Record for the longest singing marathon in April 2019.

Even though Silver surpassed Indian singer Sunil Waghmare’s previous record by singing for an incredible 106 hours straight, Guinness World Records officials disqualified Silver for breaking the organization’s strict guidelines.

Silver’s determination to break the record was evident as he performed over 5,000 songs during his epic five-day singing marathon, marking his second attempt after an unsuccessful try in 2016.

The Dominican artist had seemingly achieved his goal by surpassing Waghmare’s record, but elation turned to disappointment when his attempt was invalidated.

Guinness Records cited video evidence revealing that Silver took breaks of up to two minutes between songs, a clear violation of the specified 30-second break allowance.


Although Silver admitted to occasionally exceeding the prescribed break time, he argued that his seamless transition between songs should compensate for the extended breaks.

The rules dictated a 30-second rest between each song and five minutes of rest per hour of singing.

However, Silver’s team consolidated the five minutes per song into half-hour blocks, allowing him extended breaks for necessities such as rest, bathroom visits, and meals.

In a candid interview, a disappointed Silver expressed his frustration, stating, “I gave Guinness an extra 6,420 seconds, and they took away my record for taking 30 seconds longer between a few songs.”


He criticized Guinness officials for being overly methodical and urged them to recognize his humanity in the face of such a monumental feat.
