Bulgaria

Longest Duration Juggling a Size 1 Soccer Ball With the Legs

Danail Parvanov

Danail Parvanov juggled a size 1 soccer ball with his legs for 30 minutes and 5 seconds in Sofia, Bulgaria. A size 1 ball is the smallest standard football, roughly half the diameter of a match ball, which makes half an hour of continuous leg juggling a serious feat of touch and stamina. RecordSetter verified the video as a single unbroken take: fixed camera, no cuts, and an on-screen clock advancing without discontinuity from start to finish.

Spain

Longest Solo Guitar Marathon

Jotas

Spanish guitarist Jose Javier "Jotas" Segura Delgado set up in a booth at the Leyendas del Rock festival in Villena, Spain, and played electric guitar alone from 8:23 a.m. on Monday, August 3, 2026 until 4:15 p.m. on Wednesday, August 5, working through 661 logged songs with no backing tracks, metronome or bandmates. Two fixed cameras and a running clock on a monitor recorded the whole attempt, and pairs of witnesses signed off every shift and every rest break, including a power cut that he kept playing through. The result of 55 hours and 52 minutes (3,352 minutes) runs from his first song to his last, and the music only stopped on his logged breaks.

Longest Time Balancing on One Foot While Holding 10 Books in One Hand

Raiden Green

Raiden Green balanced on one foot for two minutes at home in Pakenham, Australia, while holding a stack of 10 books in one hand. The books were laid out on camera one at a time before the attempt, then held against the body for the whole run while the other hand kept a phone stopwatch in view. The unbroken video runs from the stopwatch start to 2:00, when the raised foot came back down. Light reading, heavy concentration.

Longest Time Holding A BMX Spiderman Plank Position (Rider Over 50 Years Old)

Martin Tuson

58-year-old BMX rider Martin Tuson of Bangor, Northern Ireland, walked his feet high up a vertical stone wall and locked into the Spiderman plank for 72 seconds. Hands gripped the handlebars with the rear brake clamped, body suspended horizontally between wall and bike, the only contact points his shoes against the stone and his palms on the bars. Martin set the over-50 benchmark for one of BMX's quieter endurance holds, where the bike becomes the anchor and the rider becomes the load.

Longest Time Juggling Three Plastic Bags

Meagan Marshall

Meagan Marshall juggles three plastic grocery bags in her dining room in Batavia, keeping the pattern going for 40 seconds before catching all three. A tablet stopwatch sits in frame for the whole continuous take, and the time was counted from her first throw to the final catch. Empty bags float and drift instead of dropping, so every catch means chasing a moving target.
