There was a time when the limbo was a huge craze with people doing it all over the place, usually accompanied by Chubby Checker singing Limbo Rock, one of his repertoire of songs tailored round a particular type of dance that he got into the popularity charts.

Via David Pescovitz, I saw this clip of a woman who does something I would not have thought it possible and that is to actually limbo under a car. She says he practices six hours a day for four years and has got into the Guinness book of records for going as low as 8.5 inches and now makes her living performing it at various events.
