Title: Dan Magness 24 Hour Guinness World Record
Post by: gbrocklebank on Apr 21, 2009, 02:16: AM
Just a quick one to let you know that next Thursday 30th April, Dan Magness will be attempting to keep a football up for 24 hours in a massive glass box in London's Covent Garden!

The event starts at 2pm on 30th April and Dan is planning to smash the current record of 19.5 hours by being the first person in the world ever to keep a ball up for a whole 24 hours! This will be over 250,000 touches!

Please also feel free to come down on the day to witness his GWR attempt. Be there by 12:30pm on 30th April
for the opening ceremony including football celebrities and some other freestyle performances.

Hope to see you there!

I love Dan, and I hope he does this !

But, in a way this is kinda silly.

How can it be 24hours solid, if there are breaks in between ?
Although saying that, Dan could easily just TopHeadStall the ball while he takes a dump, so I guess its all good !!

Seriously, can he take break for a shit or something? If not,  then he will be a fu...ng god. But if he can, it would be insanely cool anyway.

woow 24 hours, big respect for that,

I was passing through London that day...so I went to see him, I spoke with Al Johnson another freestyler who performed there and he said Dan was entitled to a 5 min break every hour! Dan took a break after 3 hours, to be honest it's silly having a break even if he needs one :-/ is'nt that the whole point of this type of record to see how long he can go for -_- but well done to him anyway, big big big record!

If it's right what Ash Randall said then it's a little bit weird that he can have a break for 5 min every hour.
But still impressive

My dad told me he only had 3 breaks in the 24 hours.

Post by: Azun on May 04, 2009, 09:42: AM
this is not logic to me.

the reason a juggler this good drops.. is because he gets tierd.   so its all about endurance and then whats the deal whit breaks?

anyway big respect to the most borring record ever ;)

Post by: Royal Freakiness on May 04, 2009, 10:02: AM
the problem is, if he takes a break for too long he'll get cramps and shit, so the breaks are not really too helpful if you abuse them
