The 15-year-old son of two doctors performed a filmed Caesarean section birth under his parents' watch in southern India in an apparent attempt to gain a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records as the youngest surgeon.The last thing a patient needs is a juvenile doctor with a disproportionate sense of his own smarts egged-on by his imbecile parents. And, what's with this Guinness nonsense? Isn't there better things to aspire to than a mention in a record book that panders to weird and crazy shit?

Guinness has refused to accept other records, and even discontinued some, on the basis of endangerment. If they have any honor at all, they'll refuse to list this one.
