I usually get bored and give up when I try high rep low intensity movements.

I bet Zanta could come close to the record.

Anyone can edit wikpedia articles. You can go in right now and change the number to 103,030,340 pushups non stop if you wanted

You could also check the sources and see where that number really came from.

Back of the hand? That would snap my wrists off completely. I cannot even do normal hands flat on the floor kind anymore because of my wrists.

When I was wrestling and running track in high school, I could do 100 push-ups non-stop but never timed myself. I could also do 27 pull-ups in a row. Now I can do about 65 push-ups straight and about 20 pull-ups in a row.

I can't imagine anyone being able to do more than 1000 push ups in a row. Hard to believe. Anyhow, real push-ups only count if they are done with palms placed about shoulders width apart (a little more is ok) otherwise they aren't official. Anyhow, I found the records here:

those numbers are true, i saw the other day on TV this croatian Krunoslav Budiselic talk about pushups and how great they are, he told some numbers and i was amazed... i looked up on wikipedia and it was the same numbers he told, so i guess it is true...
