Everyone would like to be remembered. A few people even try to do something that no one else in history has ever tried to do. These people sometimes have their names recorded（记录）in the Guinness Book of Records.
Often it takes a group of people to do something unusual. One such team paddled（用桨划）a bathtub（浴缸）145 kilometers for 24 hours. This group had 13 members. They paddled their bathtub on a river near Ashford, Great Britain on May 28 and 29. 1983.

However, the distance（距离）record for hospital bed pushing is still held by the men of Bruntsfield Bedding Center. This team from Edinburgh pushed a hospital bed 5,203 kilometers in 1979. It took the team 35 days to cover the distance.
Another group of record makers held the highest dinner party in the world. Nine people from Sydney,Australia, climbed Mountain Huascaran on June 28, 1989. The climbers carried a dinner table. chairs, and a meal up the mountain. When they reached the top, they all put on warm suits for dinner.

It seems to be strange that there is a blind spot in the eye. Here is an interesting experiment (实验) that can make something disappear when one eye is open.
Make a card about the size of a postcard and write two English letters "L" and "R" on it. "L" is on the left and "R" on the right. First, hold the card about 80 cm away and you can see both the letters. Then close your right eye and look at the letter "R" only with your left eye. And now, as you move the card slowly towards you, you'll find the letter "L" disappearing. But if you move the card nearer to your face, the letter will be seen again. Now do the same experiment with your left eye closed; you'll find the letter "R" disappearing.
Why do the letters disappear? It is because there is a blind spot in the eye. When the image (影像) of the letter falls on the blind spot, it won’t be seen. That’s why one of the letters disappears.The writer of the passage thinks that _______ there is a blind spot in the eye.
