Foot World Records

Yanhao Deng of Chenzhou, Hunan, packed a stack of 15 silver coins into the gap between the big toe and second toe of one bare foot, then let the toes do all the work. In one unedited phone clip filmed on a bed, both hands pull away and the toes hold every coin for about two and a half seconds, then Yanhao slides the stack out and fans it across one palm with a thin stick so the coins can be counted. RecordSetter checked the hold frame by frame, and the fanned stack is consistent with the claimed 15. That is a pocketful of change parked in one toe gap.

Ariel Rogalla kept five balls going in a cascade for 2 minutes and 17.69 seconds while balancing on one foot on a cobblestone riverside walkway in Prague. Filmed at night in one continuous take, the video has the camera circling from Ariel's side to the front while the raised leg stays off the ground until the balls are collected and the foot comes down. RecordSetter timed the run from the footage, a clear 45 seconds beyond the previous mark of 1 minute 32.14 seconds. Ariel told friends a world record was coming, then delivered one.

Ryan Terry of Cairns, Australia, wedged a can of hairspray between the big toe and second toe of one bare foot and kept it hovering above the carpet, hands-free, for more than 10 seconds. The video opens and closes with a tape measure laid across the base of the can, which reads 51 millimeters, or about 2 inches. Not bad for a gap most people only use for flip-flops.

Charlie Melick, age 8, stood on one foot on a bed mattress for 1 minute, 21.5 seconds in Corpus Christi, Texas on September 20, 2026. Barefoot, with the other leg tucked behind and arms out for balance, Charlie rode out every wobble of the soft mattress without once putting the raised foot down. The time was measured frame by frame from the continuous, unedited phone video, from the moment the foot leaves the mattress until it touches back down, and matches the phone stopwatch lying on the bed.
