Gizmodo Video Editor Sets Guinness World Record for Typing on the iPad [Video]

Posted November 17, 2011 at 6:05pm by
Gizmodo US video editor Woody Allen Jang has set a Guinness World Record for his typing speed on the iPad.

The team from the recently launched Gizmodo UK took on their US counterparts in a transatlantic tech challenge for Guinness World Records Day. With a time of 4.7 seconds to beat, both offices went about trying to set a new benchmark for the fastest time to type the alphabet on an iPad [with one hand].


Despite a sterling effort from Editor Kat Hannaford and News Editor Sam Gibbs in the UK, the US earned the bragging rights with video editor Woody Allen Jang clocking an incredible, world-record-setting time of 3.93 seconds.
