Michael Benavides of Fort Lupton, Colorado wore a red tear-away Tyvek concert wristband for 96 days from August 1, 2026, stacking six more bands from later shows beside it on the same wrist, all without glue or tape. His November 5 photo shows all seven in a row: a neon green OVER 21 band from a Halloween show, the green splatter band with serial 03835, lime green and cherry bands, the frayed red and orange originals from August, and the yellow band with serial 33299. RecordSetter matched the bands, serials and wear against his earlier dated photos and close-up video from the streak. Seven shows, one wrist, no tape.

Arthur did 107 muscle-ups without coming off the bar in a 34-minute set at his gym in Christchurch, New Zealand, filmed in one uncut take by a phone on the floor while other members trained around him. A muscle-up takes the body from hanging below a bar to holding it up above the bar, and Arthur swung each one up with a knee tuck, then rested on top between reps, sometimes for close to a minute. His rules banned touching the ground and chicken-wing reps, where one elbow hooks over the bar before the other, and RecordSetter counted every rep on his original phone file. He shares his climb from a single chicken-wing muscle-up to this set on his YouTube channel, Arthur's Fitness.

Dina Mishev climbed 34,546 feet in 24 hours, a new world record. Using climbing skins, she repeatedly trekked up a 1502-foot trail, checking in with officials at the top off the trail, before skiing down and checking in with officials at the bottom. She did this 23 times in 24 hours. The record was set on February 8, 2009 during the 24 Hour Sunlight Challenge at the Sunlight Mountain Resort in Glenwood Springs, Colorado. tag:RecordSetterBook01

Emmanuel Frechou curled a single 14.3-kilogram dumbbell for an hour in Antibes, France, moving 22,536.8 kilograms in total. The video opens with the dumbbell weighed on a scale, then shows him working through 197 sets of 8 one-arm curls, setting the dumbbell on the floor and switching arms after every set. The total is the dumbbell weight times 1,576 repetitions, and RecordSetter checked the set and rep count against the continuous, single-camera footage. He finishes red in the face and reaching for a towel.

Ashley McIntyre has ridden her own motorcycle across the United States both ways: border to border from the Mexican line at Santa Teresa, New Mexico, to the Canadian border in Saskatchewan in July 2025, and coast to coast from the Atlantic surf at Jacksonville, Florida, to the water's edge in San Diego, California, from July 19 to 23, 2026. She was 15 years old when she finished the coast-to-coast ride on her CFMOTO 300SS sport bike, with her father, Tracy, riding alongside on his own motorcycle. Each crossing is verified by video from its starting line to its finish, and each also stands as its own RecordSetter record. A three-time national roadracing champion who started riding at age five, Ashley crossed the country on both axes at an age when most of her classmates were still waiting on a driver's license.
