A man from Sydney, Australia, has broken the world record for the longest gaming marathon of all time, managing to play Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 for more than 135 hours.

Gaming marathons usually have some really bad outcomes, as we reported on a variety of incidents which resulted in the death of players.

Australian sales manager Okan Kaya decided to face these risks and went on a marathon gaming session of 135 hours, according to Wired.

His accomplishment was verified by the Guinness World Records book, which confirmed that he had overtaken the previous record holders, a Canadian duo that played Resistance on the PlayStation 3 for 120 hours.

Even if Kaya doesn’t look that good in the picture above, he was allowed to take 10 minute breaks every hour, which could be accumulated, meaning he had some time to sleep and give his body time to relax.

I challenge the World Record. I will break it this Spring Festival. I will go 150 hours, with the goal of getting up to 180 hours in Black Ops 2 on my Xbox.
I am no newb to records, and 135 hours for getting a 10 minute break the whole time, is too easy. I will break that and have proof of my deed too.

With a ten minute break each hour that accumulates so you can sleep, this seems like it would be pretty easy. I don't require alot of sleep so this doesn't seem like that big of a deal....I wish I had enough time in life to try, but work, wife, kids don't allow for that.....congrats though, it is pretty cool.
