Hilda Effiong Bassey, the talented Nigerian chef widely known as Hilda Baci, has revealed that she had no idea she could sit while attempting to break the Guinness World Record.
Hilda, who recently completed a remarkable 100-hour cooking marathon, made this revelation during an interview on Friday, May 19, 2023.
She told the press that she chose to stand for the entire 100-hour duration because the previous record-holder did the same. It was only after completing the challenge that she realized she had the option to sit.
@theculturejoint 🇳🇬Record holder Hilda Baci was NOT even required to stand during the cook-t-ton. She only found out after cooking for 100 hours on her feet😭😭😭 So 2 records on one? 🤔

"I didn't know I could sit while cooking. I only discovered it after I completed the challenge," Hilda admitted.
One of the reasons Hilda decided to document the entire process was due to a scarcity of resources when she initially researched the challenge. She explained that she could only find three videos online, which influenced her decision to stand throughout the marathon.

"I didn't know I could sit because, when I checked the videos of the previous chef, she was standing," Hilda elaborated. "It was only after the attempt that I found a clip of her sitting. Perhaps, until now, nobody believed it was possible to stand for 100 hours while cooking. But since someone has done it, it means it's possible and achievable."
