Dec. 6 (UPI) — Serial Guinness World Record-breaker David Rush made it to the semi-finals of Spain’s Got Talent and managed to burst 28 balloons with thrown chopsticks in 30 seconds.
Rush, who holds the most concurrent Guinness World Records titles, took aim at the title for the most balloons burst with chopsticks in 30 seconds, with the number to beat standing at 15.
“A couple of things didn’t go quite as planned — one balloon was disqualified for being after the time limit, and two burst simultaneously with another balloon — but the experience was unforgettable,” Rush said. “The adrenaline, the challenge, and the opportunity to perform in front of such an amazing crowd were truly surreal.”
Despite the disqualifications, Rush still managed to take the record with 28 balloons burst.
The most expensive cars in the world are so much more than transportation. These rolling art pieces encapsulate the priorities of the one percent, and in that universe, flamboyance and swagger take precedence over practicality and efficiency. Lifestyle criticisms aside, these are truly mind-boggling machines, and we’d like to count down our favorites for you here.
Kicking off our list is less of a car and more of an unchained animal in the ST1. Assembled in Zealand, Denmark, the Zenvo creates an absolutely obscene amount of power by combining a 6.8-liter V8 with both a supercharger and a turbocharger. Just how much is obscene exactly? How about 1,104 horsepower and 1,054 pound-feet of torque, all channeled to the car’s rear wheels.
Few cars on the road are more striking, and even fewer accelerate faster. With a dry weight of less than 2,800 pounds, this dragon-like performance car accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in less than 3.0 seconds, and it’ll prance to 124 mph in under 7. Flat out, it’ll top 217 mph.
