Chatterbox Tony Wright
, the man who holds a world record that he remains sleeplessness by staying awake for 11 days, just set another world record: he made the world's longest phone call.
The Cornishman talked on his internet phone for 40 hours - and was still going strong.
The previous record for the world's longest phone call stood at 39 hours, 18 minutes and 24 seconds. It was set on November 3, 2005 by Sandra Kobel and Stephen Hafner, from Switzerland.
But shortly after 2am today, Mr Wright successfully broke the record while talking to Jenny Barnard, of north London.
His record bid began when he chatted to TV weather forecaster Sian Lloyd almost two days ago. Since then hundreds of people have taken hourly chat slots with Mr Wright to help him beat the record.
