American record-breaker David Rush has set a new world record by folding 415 paper airplanes in just one hour, at a YMCA in Boise, Idaho.
That works out to be about one paper plane every 8.67 seconds. Each plane had to be folded using an official seven-fold pattern, and fly a set distance to count, according to Guinness World Records rules.
Rush had a team of helpers who kept him supplied with paper, moved finished planes to be checked by witnesses, and made sure each one was properly thrown and measured.
This is just one of more than 200 Guinness World Records that Rush currently holds. He’s already got his eye on his next challenge: breaking the record for the fastest time to fold and throw a single paper airplane, which currently stands at 4.54 seconds.
It just goes to show that with enough practice, even paper planes can become a serious sport.

Ka Whakapaipai Tāne i te 415 Waka Rererangi Pepa i te Haora Kotahi
Kua whakatakoto i tētahi rekoata hōu a David Rush, te tangata pakaru-rekoata nō Amerika, mā te whakapaipai i te 415 waka rererangi pepa i te haora kotahi, i tētahi YMCA i Boise, Idaho.
E ōrite ana tēnei ki te kotahi waka rererangi ia 8.67 hēkona. Me whakapaipai ia waka rererangi mā tētahi tauira whakapaipai e whitu ōna pekunga, me rere hoki i tētahi tawhiti kua whakaritea, kia tika ai i raro i ngā ture a Guinness World Records.
I whai kaiāwhina a Rush hei tuku pepa ki a ia, hei kawe i ngā waka kua oti ki ngā kaimātakitaki hei arotake, me te whakarite kia tika te whiu me te ine o tēnā, o tēnā.
He kotahi noa tēnei o ngā rekoata Guinness World Records neke atu i te 200 kei a Rush ināianei. Kua whai whakaaro kē ia ki tana wero e whai ake nei: te wawe rawa atu ki te whakapaipai me te whiu i te waka rererangi kotahi, koia nei te rekoata o nāianei, e 4.54 hēkona.
E whakaatu ana tēnei, mā te ako tonu, ka taea rawatia te waka rererangi pepa te huri hei hākinakina tino pakari.
