Anyone know what the record amount of consecutive pushups is?

I heard it was like 12,000 and something. o_o

yeah it is an insane amount of reps. I have been told that around the 400 mark is the last barrier. After that it is all about mental capabilities. I mean doing push ups for 3+ hours straight is mentally tough.
