The new Guinness World Record for reciting Pi from memory is now 67890 digits! It was set by Lu Chao from China. The record was set on November 19th, 2005, but was only just recently confirmed by Guinness.

At this writing, Akira Haraguchi's attempt at 100,000 digits has neither been confirmed nor denied by Guinness, so we may see Lu Chao's record broken in the coming months.
