LinkyROSEBURG, Oregon (AP) -- A retired pastor reclaimed his title as world champion phone book ripper by tearing through 39 Portland white page directories in three minutes.
About 100 people watched Saturday as Ed Charon, 69, ripped the 1,004-page books in half during the exhibition at the Roseburg Valley Mall.
After the first 60 seconds, Charon had already ripped through 16 phone books, three shy of the number he tore through two years ago when he originally set the world's record.
After two minutes, he had gone through another dozen.
Only twice did any of the books give Charon a problem. He paused slightly on the 32nd phone book and again on the 34th before splitting each in half.
