Guinness Records Fall in Baltimore

 

Between Anthony Gatto and a huge crowd of enthusiastic jugglers in general, Guinness juggling records fell like rain at the Baltimore convention. Gene Jones, Guinness World Judge for Juggling, was on hand to certify the following Guinness World Records:

 

Records set by Anthony Gatto: 45:02 for five clubs; 3:56 for seven balls; 5:32.4 for seven rings; 1: 13 for seven clubs; 1: 17 for eight rings; and the only person to ever flash eight clubs.

 

Dan Bennett's flash of ten bean bags ties the existing record of Enrico Rastelli and Albert Lucas.

 

The Big Toss Up set a new record for the most people juggling the most objects in one place at one time -- 524 people juggling 1,997 objects.

 

The joggling races produced several records as well. A relay team of Albert Lucas, Owen Morse, Jon Wee and Tuey Wilson joggled the mile in a new record of 4:01.49. Owen Morse ran 100 meters in 11.68. Billy Gillen did a mile joggling five balls in 7:41.01 and five kilometers in 28: 11. And, Kathy Glynn set a women's record for the mile joggle with a time of 6: 17.
