The longest recorded flight of a chicken is 13 seconds

In 1973, a chicken named Mike flew for 13 seconds before landing safely back on the ground. This remarkable feat was recorded in the town of England, and although it's not a long-distance record, it's certainly a surprising one. The Guinness World Records has verified Mike's achievement, and it remains a curious record to this day.
