Idaho man catches 81 tennis balls with a boxing glove

An Idaho man donned a boxing glove and used it to catch 84 tennis balls in 1 minute, breaking a Guinness World Record.

David Rush, who has broken more than 250 Guinness World Records to promote STEM education, said he initially thought the 74-catch record would be easy to beat, but then he realized the record was for catching with a single glove, not two.

Tennis balls don’t want to be caught in boxing gloves. Every time they hit, they simply bounce out. There is only a very small window where a ball can land and be caught,” Rush said.

Rush said he spent time training with the glove and even taught himself to juggle two tennis balls in one boxing glove.
