Youngest Person to Ride a Motorcycle Across America Border to Border and Coast to Coast

Ashley McIntyre

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.

Most Unbroken Muscle-Ups

Arthur

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.

Most Weight Lifted By Dumbbell Curls In One Hour

Emmanuel Frechou

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.

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.

Fastest Walk To All 92 Football League Grounds

Xavier Wiggins

Xavier Wiggins walked to the home ground of all 92 Premier League and Football League clubs in 92 days, setting out from Swansea on 2 August 2025 and finishing at Home Park, Plymouth, on 1 November 2025. His Day 92 video shows him in his orange Walk92 hoodie striding the last stretch with fellow walkers clapping behind him, sitting in the Plymouth Argyle dugout and meeting the club mascot, Pilgrim Pete. The route covered roughly 2,000 miles with four rest days, and his day-by-day videos, club charities and local press along the way confirm the arrivals. Nearly a marathon a day for three months, all to spotlight the community work of football clubs.

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.

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.

Northern Ireland

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.

Fastest Combined Time for Norseman, Kona Ironman and Ultraman by a National Team Rower

JACK NUNN

Jack Nunn, a former US national team rower who won silver in the eight at the 2001 Under-23 World Rowing Championships in Linz, Austria, finished three of triathlon's most punishing races in a little over two years. He completed the Norseman Xtreme Triathlon in Norway in 15:02:45 in August 2017, the three-day, 320-mile Ultraman Florida in 33:24:36 in February 2019, and the Ironman World Championship in Kona, Hawaii in 15:05:51 in October 2019. RecordSetter checked each finish against the official published race results, for a combined 63 hours, 33 minutes and 12 seconds. Not bad for a 6-foot-3, 220-pound athlete built for a rowing shell rather than a mountain climb.

Most Time Wearing Consecutive Tyvek Wristbands on the Same Wrist

Michael Benavides

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.
