Explore The Science of Guinness World Records and discover the principles behind extraordinary achievements. Themes change monthly, bringing fresh, hands-on challenges inspired by record-setting feats in flight and space, health and wellness, and engineering and technology. Try activities like launching rockets, testing your reflexes, and tackling bold build projects while learning how scientists, innovators, and everyday people push limits, overcome barriers, and make history. Admission to the Museum covers participation.

Explore the real science behind record-breaking achievements in a hands-on exhibition that blends STEAM learning with playful competition. Try challenges that measure strength, focus, reflexes, and endurance while live leaderboards track your best results, and learn how biology, psychology, and mechanics fuel extraordinary performances. There is also an opportunity to pursue an official Guinness adjudication. Begin with an immersive film that traces the origins and authority of Guinness World Records, then take a quiz to learn what qualifies as an official record and the criteria that guide each attempt. See remarkable accomplishments, aim for high scores in dedicated attempt areas, and hear insider perspectives from an adjudicator and a scientist. Build concentration through memory games and tactile puzzles, sharpen reaction time with rapid-response stations that provide feedback and tips, and test stamina on features like a hang bar and balance boards while discovering the science of fatigue. Conclude with a finale film filled with inspiring stories from record holders and capture a photo with certificate backdrops to imagine your own milestone. The exhibit is included with Museum admission. Presented locally by Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital.
