Today I spoke at the Wisconsin Technology Association about Private LTE and then gave an update on the state of 5G. I had an intermission juggling performance and storytelling of why I break world records between the two and finished off with an official Guinness World Record attempt.

The attempt today was a repeat of a record I previously held of most target hits with a foam dart gun in one minute. The target had to be less than 25 cm and placed over 5 meters away. The gun has to be a single shot that much be cocked before every shot. Last time I went after the record it stood at 11 hits. I got 16. Ashrita Furman took it back with 17.

On my first attempt, I got 17 hits. On the second I got less. On my third attempt, I got 19 hits breaking the record. I was hoping to get a few more and tried a few more times but wasn’t consistent enough for an entire minute to crack 20. I suspect I’ll be coming back to this one again in a few months.

Thanks to the team!
