Reading The Entire Bible In One Sitting! | World Record Attempt

Go check out some of the other challenges I've done and, as always, leave a comment if you have any challenge or other video ideas!

I have lots more content coming out soon so be sure to SUBSCRIBE if you enjoyed the video!

Watch to find out if I break the world record for fastest reading of the Bible! The current (previous??) world record is (was??) 76 hours and was completed by 140 people who took turns reading. To beat this by myself it will require pretty much non-stop reading.

This is the summary video of the experience. I also live-streamed the entire thing to provide evidence for the challenge. Check those out below if they interest you for some reason!

I will also release a reaction/response video a few days after this challenge! Leave a comment if you have any questions about the process and I will be sure to answer it in my response video!

More Challenge Details:
- I am reading the 784,137 word King James Version of the Bible which is significantly longer (about 50,000 words) than many versions of the Bible and uses really old language that causes me to stumble through the verses and repeat myself constantly. I am only using the KJV because it is the same version the previous (current??) world record used.
- The average novel is about 80,000-100,000 words, so reading the Bible is like reading almost 10 novels in a row!

I was thinking about you this week, Alex, and wondered where you went... now I know. I love to read out loud - especially the Scriptures - but this is beyond impressive. I can't imagine keeping it up. Well done!! And to think it was not in vain - God will return it to you. That's what the Bible says. Would love to see the video describing more of this experience. Now, get some rest.

This is such an awesome idea! AND I have to share this with my husband, JoeEnsley because he’s a huge Office fan and will love those office clips for humor!! (Well edited video!!) 😀👍

This is incredible! I must say you are amazing to have attempted this. I can imagine how difficult it is reading a chapter of the bible and struggling to understand it except with the help of the holy spirit. Thank you for doing this!

I like the first parts when you placed a summary and those cool photos :) It's fun, this challenge is really exhausting but i feel like I wanted to try. You have been so honest about your feelings here, even those times you wanted to give up...but going to that mountain to read is so cool! (btw the view looks like here in the Philippines! i like it).
Glad to watch this! and more of your vids
