I can’t believe I finally did it! I’ve been practicing for this record since I applied in March of 2016 making it one of the first records I ever applied to beat. It’s also one of the hardest to break.

For you non-jugglers out there, don’t be deceived: taking a bite out of an apple is one of the easiest juggling tricks in the book and audience enjoyment to difficult rating is one of the highest in juggling – assuming you’re not performing for jugglers. I was performing at the opening night of the Boston Juggling Festival.

Record holder Michael Goudeau took 151 bites out of 3 apples in 1 minute (a feat he wasn’t able to replicate when he went on the live Guinness Show, and I know why!)

I got about 140 bites out of my 3 pre-weighed apples on the first try and had a full 10 seconds left in the minute. The audience was very friendly and gave me another shot. On my second try, I got 169 bites out of the 3 apples. The last bite was after time expired, 2 bites happened while I was spitting apple out of my mouth and 2 bites just hit my teeth vs having visible bites taken. The new record is 164 bites taken out of 3 apples in 1 minute.

This is my 64th world record broken and in the top 5 most difficult to break. It took me 2 tries but I had a 3rd bag of pre-weighed apples for this show and was ready to try it again 5 more times the next day without an audience. Now we have plenty of apples to eat for our weekend in Boston.

Thanks to the team and the awesome audience!
