Erinn Dearth and Dan Beckmann, the performing duo Letters From Home, took their USO-style variety show to all 50 U.S. states in 121 days. The tour opened at the Gulf Theatre in Punta Gorda, Florida on January 27, 2023 and closed at the Lincoln Theatre in Marion, Virginia on May 28, 2023, with a tap dance performance at a venue in every state along the way.

Yanhao Deng of Chenzhou, Hunan, performed 58 shanshenbu, the quick sideways flash step from Anhui's Huagudeng folk dance, in one minute, barefoot on a bed at home. Each step sweeps both arms to one side, shoots the same foot out sideways and snaps back to standing at attention, alternating left and right. A phone countdown on the desk stays in view for the whole unedited video, and RecordSetter counted every step frame by frame between the countdown reaching one minute and zero. That is nearly one flash a second.
