Most Hanetsuki Hits – World Record

Happy Father’s Day!

Jonathan Hollywood Hannon and I have broken another Guinness World Record’s Title. (We actually set it earlier during the lockdown but are posting it now on father’s day).

It’s basically Japanese Badmitten without the net. My wife works at HP and travels (or traveled to) Japan on a regular basis. She had her coworkers get us the paddles and birdie so we could make an attempt at this record. We practiced long before the lockdown started and finally made the official attempt when the opportunity presented itself.

Passing the Birdie

The previous record was 89 hits in one minute and we got 103. The craziest part was we were using ‘birdies’ and when we dropped one, their cat, who hadn’t seen the light of day is some time, saw his opportunity and stole the birdie off the ground. Fortunately, we had others to work with and still crushed the record.

Cat got the birdie?
