The dude’s name is Brian Sweet and he writes for Gumball Tech and he claims that he claims to have beaten the world text-messaging record using nothing more than the onscreen keyboard of his iPhone 4.
Previously a woman form the UK typed (or more accurately swiped) out the phrase “the razor-toothed piranhas of the genera Serrasalmus and Pygocentrus are the most ferocious freshwater fish in the world. In reality they seldom attack a human,” in a whisker under 26 seconds using Swype installed in a Samsung Galaxy S. But in a video uploaded on YouTube Sweet managed the same phrase under 22 seconds, a full 4 seconds quicker than the world record.
Super thumbs Sweet was that although the record is not official, it’s definitely better than what that woman recently achieved.
So this begs the question, can people actually type faster using a standard onscreen keyboard? Although it seems that this is possible, you have to be one super texter to pull the feat.
Check out the video after the jump and get ready to be amazed, it’s all a blur of thumbs to us.
