Some Of New Jersey's World Records

New Jersey can be very proud of its world records. Some of them are simply amazing, but it shouldn't surprise you to know some of them are weird.

And where do we turn to find any information about world records? Of course, we turn to the experts at the Guinness Book of World Records.

Let's start with one that's a lot of fun. New Jersey holds the record for the largest gathering of zombies.
