Man spits table tennis ball at a wall 51 times in 30 seconds

A serial Guinness World Record-breaker took some time during an ocean cruise to spit a table tennis ball at a wall and break one of his own records.
David Rush, who holds the most concurrent Guinness World Records titles at more than 181, said he was “somewhere in the North Atlantic Ocean” aboard the Disney Wonder cruise ship when he broke the record for the most table tennis balls bounced against a wall with the mouth in 30 seconds for the third time.
Rush originally set the record at 43 bounces, and bested his own title in 2024 with 47 bounces at Guinness World Records headquarters in London.
He managed to break the record for a third time with 51 bounces on day 5 of his cruise.
“To the casual eye, it might look goofy. But trust me: this record is deceptively difficult,” he wrote online. “The spit has to be perfectly aimed. Too much pressure, and the ball rockets back higher than expected. Too little, and it drops low and slows you down. Every bounce is a split-second calculation: pressure, angle, timing.”
