  "I was hoping to crack 3,600, not counting the broken shells. So I don't know how many I cracked with broken shells, but I was hoping to beat it by at least 500," he said.

  The Guinness world record for the most eggs cracked in one hour with one hand is 2,069 and was achieved by Bob Blumer (Canada) at the Festival de L'Omelette Géante in Granby, Québec, Canada.

  Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the most eggs cracked in one minute with one hand: 32, achieved by Ross McCurdy (USA) in Kingston, Washington, USA.

  The idea came to Perras roughly a year and a half ago when one of his bosses saw a celebrity chef on TV break the world record for cracking eggs.

 "He came into work and he said, 'You're way faster than that,'" Perras said.
  
  As for the eggs, all 3,031 along with hash browns and sausages were donated to the Ottawa Mission for breakfast this weekend.
