Among the many different records, we wanted to highlight the cutest one.

And this title is rightfully deserved by the achievement made by 68-year-old Jackie Miley from South Carolina, USA.

She managed to get into the pages of the Guinness Book of Records thanks to her passion for teddy bears.

The woman's hobby began in her childhood, when at the age of 8 she noticed a teddy bear at a fair and absolutely wanted to become its owner.

The girl managed to win the toy, and from then on, Jackie was unstoppable.

The woman bought teddy bears at every possible opportunity, both in America and abroad.

Over the years, her collection grew with more and more new exhibits, until one day it occurred to Miley to count the number of her teddy bears.

There were just over eight thousand toys – 8,026, to be precise. Here you can find both tiny ones 2 cm high and real giants whose sizes reach 2.5 m.
