In a remarkable display of balance and endurance, David Rush from Idaho successfully balanced a running lawnmower on his chin for 9 minutes and 17 seconds, setting a new Guinness World Record. Rush, who is aiming to hold the most Guinness World Records titles at once, made this attempt to surpass a previous record of 7 minutes and 2 seconds set by Ashrita Furman.

Rush had previously tried to set this record about four years ago with a time of 3 minutes and 52 seconds, but his attempt was disqualified due to the absence of a bag on the lawnmower. Although his recent attempt fell short of his 10-minute goal, it was still sufficient to claim the record.

This achievement increases Rush’s total to 165 concurrent Guinness World Record titles, edging him closer to the record-holder Silvio Sabba, who has 180 titles.
