Think you can fill a tube with 2.5 milliliters (0.085 ounces) of saliva in under 146 seconds? Prove it.

Because if you can, you’ll beat our record. Thats right, we spit 2.5ml of saliva in 146 seconds.

Consider yourself officially challenged to a spit-off.

Here is the video to prove our feat:

You can see that I have a hard time speaking after ejecting all my saliva. :)

I’m pretty sure the 146sec record will stand for a long time (well, at least until some pro expectorators see our video on YouTube and rise to the occasion).

If you beat the record (or at least try to), please leave a video response on YouTube or leave a video link to your efforts in the comments.

Make sure to tag your saliva-spitting YouTube videos with “spitchallenge“. All YouTube videos tagged with “spitchallenge” will shop up below:

Also, I want to hear how long it took all the other saliva-spitting bloggers to fill their tubes. You hear me Arrington, Gary Wolf, Mark Fletcher and Lara at LaunchSquad?

Note: Our 2.5ml of saliva will be submitted to 23andMe for their Genome Explorer service. We will be blogging our complete experience with their new personal genomics service here at BUZZYEAH.

See the ‘My Genome‘ category in the left sidebar for more blog posts on our journey so far.

  • Mark & Stephen, taking 5min would have been smarter.

    did you guys have dry mouth as bad as i did after?? i had to drink water all night.
  • Woa, you were on a mission. I did it in about 4-5 minutes. Maybe we are related, I guess we'll find out.

  • tuftsmania
    hahhahaha YES
  • That was pretty gross Andrew.
    I don't think you will be beaten.
  • I'm pretty sure you have me beat. While I didn't time it, I recall it took me about 5 minutes to expectorate the required quantity.
  • What if I can drink your saliva in less than 1 second??? THAT would be a more impressive world record... slightly more disgusting.

    Cheers for the 23 and me BLOGGING of Andrew Meyer!

    Hip Hip HOORAY~~~
