Trending: World Record For Most Set On Fire, Running While Knitting & iPad 5 Debut

Apple Prepares For iPad 5 Debut

A new toy for Apple lovers is coming out tomorrow – the iPad 5. The big reveal is lunchtime tomorrow -- but thanks to internet leaks we already know a little about what the iPad 5 will look like and what it can do.

Experts say the new tablet will look more like the iPad mini, and smaller, lighter, narrower than the iPad 4.

It will be available in a space gray and black combo instead of just black -- which is a new color combo introduced with the new iPhone 5s.

Some are saying we may also see the new iPad offered in gold and white -- and that the new touch id fingerprint scanner offered on the iPhone may also be included on the new iPad.

Prices are expected to start at 500 -- and go up from there.


Running While Knitting

A Missouri professor now holds the record for running a marathon while knitting.

David Babcock finished the Kansas City marathon just shy of six hours -- 5 hours, 48 minutes, and 27 seconds to be exact -- all while knitting a scarf that is more than 12 feet long.

The previous record holder had knitted a scarf that was 6 feet, 9 inches.

Babcock says he started running and knitting as separate hobbies -- and then combined them to keep it interesting.


21 People Set Themselves On Fire, Set New World Record

People in Cleveland went to much more extreme measures to break a record, literally setting themselves on fire.

21 people were simultaneously set on fire, breaking the previous Guinness world record held by 17 people.

The participants wore gel-soaked clothing to protect themselves from the flames -- which burned for 32 seconds.

One of them said -- it was great to be with new friends, old friends -- all on fire at the same time.
