Bucket on the Head Ball Catch

After polishing off the tennis ball basket catch record we went for its sister: most tennis balls caught on a bucket on the head in one minute. The previous record was 79 and we crushed it with 98. Jonathan threw 123 tennis balls in one minute, one at a time, and between the accurate throws and my moving a little bit, we had 80% of them land in the bucket.

We started with smaller buckets and had issues with balls bouncing out to start, but between perfecting the carnival soft-touch throw with both hands and lifting the bucket off my head just ever so slightly so the bottom had some give, we were able to avoid the early balls bouncing out.

Since we haven’t seen anyone else in a few weeks and we have at least a couple more weeks of isolation, stay tuned since we’re likely to try a few more of these records before the quarantine is over.
