About The Redneck World Records
The world's first and only platform dedicated to documenting, celebrating, and ranking the most impressive feats of backyard ingenuity on the planet.
Our Mission
Across America, there are people building incredible things in their garages, backyards, and barns. Homemade go-karts that hit 60 mph. Barbecue rigs welded from old propane tanks. Treehouses that rival small apartments. Lawnmower ramp jumps that defy physics and common sense.
These achievements deserve to be documented. Not mocked — celebrated. That's what The Redneck World Records is here to do.
We built this platform so builders, tinkerers, and backyard engineers can finally get the recognition they deserve. Submit your record, let the community vote, and if it's good enough — get published in the official Redneck World Records book.
How It Works
Submit Your Achievement
Grab your phone, snap some photos or a quick video, and tell us the story. Pick your category, add your stats, and hit submit. The whole process takes about two minutes.
Community Moderation & Voting
Our team reviews every submission to make sure it's genuine and family-friendly. Once approved, your record goes live and the community starts voting. No downvotes — just upvotes. We keep it positive.
Climb the Leaderboard
Records are ranked across three views: Hot (trending now), Top (most voted), and Rising (gaining momentum fast). Share your record to rally votes and climb the rankings.
Hall of Fame & The Book
Each year, the top records across all categories are inducted into the Hall of Fame and featured in the official Redneck World Records book — a real, printed coffee table book celebrating the year's greatest achievements.
10 Official Categories
Every record belongs to one of our carefully curated categories. Each one has three subcategories for more specific competition.
What We Stand For
Celebrate, Never Mock
Every record on this platform honors genuine achievement. We celebrate the builder, the creativity, and the grit — never the stereotype.
Family-Friendly, Always
Every page on this site is safe for grandma's coffee table. Our moderation team ensures all content meets community standards before it goes live.
Community-Driven
The people decide what's a record. No corporate judges, no paid endorsements. Just an upvote-only voting system where the best rises to the top.
Real Achievements, Real People
No staged content, no AI fakes, no corporate stunts. Every record is submitted by a real person who actually did the thing. If you can't prove it, it didn't happen.
The Redneck World Records Book
The platform is just the beginning. Each year, the top Hall of Fame inductees are compiled into a printed coffee table book — the kind of book you leave out for guests, flip through at family gatherings, and give as the perfect gift for the person who has everything.
Every featured record gets a full page spread with professional photography, the builder's story, stats, and the community vote count that put them there. It's part record book, part celebration of American ingenuity.
