We think only a record holder can know what you go through to set a record, so we only let people that
have already set world records downvote other people's records.
What can I do?
Go set a record! If you can think of it, you can set a new world record for it.
Thanks Dan and Kyle for your comments. To be fair, not to take anything away from the previously set record, there were a few in that video similar to the ones i'm sure you are referring to in our attempt. From what we understood as being an 'explosion' is when the person after bumping fists, then removes their hand away from the bumped hand. A fist bump alone is just the touching of the fists, not the breaking away. Hope that clears things up?
As the person who created this challenge for iD Tech Camps, I say this attempt by Hamza does not meet the criteria. Although some people of the 298 do explode after the fist bump, everyone doesn't... So technically you wouldn't have the longest chain. I classify a fist bump explosion as, two partners who bump fists, then release their hands upon impact as if a burst of energy has been activated. Although Hamza's attempt is quite the feat, I believe this video is the "most fists bump chain" and should have a new record elsewhere. Thoughts?

Great feat, though some lukewarm "explosions" to say the least. (See the Original video as reference.) Are people OK with the explosion quality here?
Kyle DeMilner
I don't know. The rule says each fist bump has to EXPLODE. I don't see much exploding on this one.
