I completed my goal of breaking 52 Guinness World Records titles in 2021. This week’s record video is one of them and a recap of a lot more.
I ran 100m in 14.33 seconds. While that isn’t too hard by itself, it becomes a lot more difficult while blindfolded. It’s nowhere near as hard as the 100m blindfolded run I did while juggling (in 16.29 seconds) but still hard enough it required some practice. (Don’t practice alone with an actual blindfold on!) I feel like this one should be officially broken by a blind person – the catch is that the guide can’t be a physical guide for the Guinness record – only audio.
It kicked off on January 4, 2021 stacking wet bars of soap with my neighbor Jonathan “Hollywood” Hannon and went up from there. We also bounced ping pong balls; caught apples, grapes, and marshmallows in the mouth; and defended our ping pong balls in shaving foam record.
I crossed the 200 Guinness World Records broken milestone with one of the 5 hardest for the most kiwis sliced in one minute using a samurai sword while standing on a swiss ball. I revisited my very first record – longest duration blindfolded juggling, this time extended the record from 22 minutes 7 seconds to 32 minutes 7 seconds.
I also broke a couple of records with my wife (including her first official one) and had several juggling records.
I finished off the year by wrapping my neighbor with a neighbor for the fastest time to wrap a person in wrapping paper, team of 2.

I was definitely expecting a different record breaking wrap, then realized my error by the end of the paragraph.
Good job, David!! This is amazing!
