The Loose Cannon “Hollywood” Jonathan Hannon and I had to defend our Guinness World Records title.

This was for the most wet sponge hits to the face in 30 seconds. We originally set this record right at the start of the pandemic with 43 wet sponge hits in 30 seconds. Jonathan threw 54 but we had 11 misses, so we knew there was room for improvement on our first try. Our record was broken later by a run of 47 in 30 seconds.

We may have been able to wait for warmer weather but I decided warm water would be good enough. I didn’t factor in that it would take as many attempts as it did and by the final attempt I was happy when the wet sponges hit me since that’s how I warmed up my very wet and cold clothes.

Our final run resulted in 51 wet sponges hitting me squarely in the face in the allotted 30 seconds.
