Had my mother let me practice at the dinner table as a child, I could be the one holding this record. Instead, it's British subject Paul Hunn who can perform a burp reaching 118.1 decibels; an intensity some compared to a pneumatic drill or an airplane taking off. 
Unfortunately for him, he doesn't indulge himself whenever it strikes his fancy. According to this record holder, the greatest belches occur after eating spicy foods and sucking in a lot of air. I certainly will be practicing this at the next family feast.
