Who knew things like this even existed?
How many of you remember folding paper airplanes and darting them across school classrooms? I do, I do! LOL. Well, John Collins designed a world-record breaking paper airplane thrown by Joe Ayoob last month. The plane flew 226 feet, 10 inches smashing the old record by 19 feet, 6 inches.
The current record is 207 feet and 4 inches set by Stephen Kreiger in 2003.
The new world record, once verified by Guinness, will be 226 feet, 10 inches. Check out the record-breaking event below.
These are probably the most dominoes you will ever see toppled in your lifetime. When do you think you'll ever have a chance to witness a bigger event? This literally will take 9-1/2 minutes to watch. I'm actually typing this blog as I watch the video. Think of it more as a meditation and relaxation time for you to watch. LOL. It would probably relieve some stress.
You may remember the unprecedented event that I blogged about on September 9th, or you may not. In either case, another unprecedented event took place last Friday, September 16th.
The BIGGEST gathering ever recorded for a game of Dodgeball. It was held at Thanksgiving point in Utah. According to the official numbers, nearly 4,000 people showed up to be a part of the game, and that doesn't include the amount of people that joined by jumping the fence.
750 balls were used in the making of this video. LOL. Check it out.
The World's Largest Water balloon fight known to man. Nearly 9,000 people took part in a battle for the ages. Using 175,141 balloons, a war with latex and water raged on. The video below was provided by the Christian Student Fellowship at the University of Kentucky who hosted the event, and I'd have to say it's pretty darn cool.
Looking like a video made from National Geographic, and set to music that provides much suspense, Tyler Bradt calls his mom and tells her that he hopes he can make it to dinner on the day he chose to take a plunge down a waterfall.
And it's not just any waterfall, it's the Palouse Falls in Washington, which is 186 feet high.
And why did Tyler take such a risk? He wanted to break a world record kayaking off a waterfall. Seriously? Are people really this stupid?
