Table Tennis balls juggled on Bottle Caps

Share to Google Classroom

David Rush, a record-breaking enthusiast, has achieved another Guinness World Record by juggling a table tennis ball on bottle caps.

During his visit to the Guinness World Records headquarters in London, Rush completed 10 alternating hits on bottle caps in just 2.09 seconds. This shattered the previous record of 4.18 seconds.

Rush, who holds numerous world records, admitted this task was harder than expected. He struggled to find bottle caps that were large enough for the ball to bounce but still met Guinness’ strict size rules. Despite the challenges, his persistence and skill paid off, cutting the previous record time in half.

Our school library has changed in several ways this term. New shelves now display graphic novels, history books, and sport biographies in separate sections, making titles easier to find. A quieter reading corner has also been set up for students who prefer to read on their own. Although some people first noticed the new furniture, the most important change is that more students have started borrowing books and spending time in the library. The librarian said the aim was to make the library more welcoming to different readers.
