Tennessean Plays GTA for 40 Hours Straight, Pees Three Times

By |

Barely four months after an Indian equity broker logged a world record by playing Grand Theft Auto IV for 40 hours and 20 minutes, a 19-year-old college kid in Tennessee has beaten it.

David Scherer (pictured), an honors student at Austin Peay (student section chant: ā€œLetā€™s Go Peay!ā€ True story.) logged his 40th hour, 21st consecutive minute playing GTA IV at 4:22 a.m. U.S. Eastern today, and according to WTVF-TV of Nashville, was still playing at 6:30 a.m. Scherer proudly noted he had actually completed more of the game than Chirantan Patnaik, 26, and took one less piss break than Patnaikā€™s four. I donā€™t know that I take fewer than three piss breaks in four hours, much less 40.

In Patnaikā€™s favor, heā€™s probably richer. Scherer said his marathon was inspired to raise money for his swim team to build an indoor pool. Maybe he can wager for some of Patnaikā€™s personal equity.
