A lad has reportedly set a new world record after hitting the snooze button on his alarm clock for a full twenty four hours.
According to reports, Graham Watson arrived to work on Tuesday morning, a full day late, having “gone to town” on the snooze button the previous day.
“I just got stuck in a cycle of pressing the snooze and going straight back to sleep,” a fresh looking Mr Watson told us earlier. “I had no idea how long I’d been doing it for, the whole twenty four hours seemed to flash by me in a matter of seconds, I totally thought it was still Monday when I got up on Tuesday.”
Friends of Mr Watson, claim they are not surprised by their pal’s actions after he “tore the arse out of it” at the weekend.
“Sure he only went home at about three o’clock on Sunday morning and he’d been up since Friday night so I’m not surprised at all that he slept for the whole day on Monday,” explained Watson’s housemate Carl. “I don’t care what you’re job is, you shouldn’t be going in after four hours sleep but definitely not if you’re a primary school teacher, like Graham.”
“He should know better by now, it’s the children who I feel sorry for,” continued Carl. “Apparently, they were left sitting there until after midday because no one had realised that he hadn’t arrived. I heard one of the little fellas actually tried to eat the class hamster, the poor little sod. Graham has a lot to answer for.”
Although initially awarded with an official Guinness World Record for his spectacular achievement, Mr Watson has since been stripped of the honour after a random drug test showed he had been using performance dehancing drugs when the record was set.
