MENNEKE TWIST comes from MANNEKE PIS which is a little statue (58 cm) in Brussels (Belgium) made by Hiëronymus Duquesnoy in 1619. MANNEKE means "little boy", PIS means piss of course. In Brussels people say MENNEKE instead of MANNEKE. Another reason for which I believe it is a Belgian record, is that there's also french on the record. In Belgium there are 3 official languages, French for the south part called Wallonia, in the north called Flanders we speak Dutch (close to german) and they speak German close to the german border... Full story on both comments can be found on wikipedia I believe this is a Belgian record… MENNEKE TWIST comes from MANNEKE PIS which is a little statue (58 cm) in Brussels (Belgium) made by Hiëronymus Duquesnoy in 1619.
