This record takes about 1,000 times as long to set up as it does to break. That wouldn’t be so bad if I didn’t have to set it up 5 times to finally get a qualifying run.

Huge thanks to the Pettey family for their help blowing up the balloons and affixing them to the floor in preparation for this record. (And thanks as well to my wife, kids, the Snyders, and several others for the previous attempts).

On the previous attempts there was always something that disqualified it, including this one with a very sad picture here:

After 5 attempts, I think I finally got it with a run of 22.38 seconds to pop all 100 balloons with only my feat beating the current market of 24.98 seconds.
