A Bite out of the Apple

 

Breaking the Guinness World Record for Most Bites Taken Out of Three Apples While Juggling – A Story of Precision, Speed, and Perseverance**

*By David Rush*

Hey, it’s David Rush here, and I’m thrilled to share the story of how I broke one of the hardest Guinness World Records I’ve ever attempted: the **the most bites taken out of three apples in one minute while juggling them**. This record is as wild as it sounds, and achieving it was never a given.

*The Record-Breaking Moment** In 2024, at the Guinness World Records headquarters in London, I attempted this record again after first setting it back in 2018 at the MIT Juggling Convention with **164 bites**. I had professional juggler asking me at that event how much practice it took. I honestly told him it took months. They were defeated already. This time, I pushed myself to the limit and achieved A number I don’t think I would even have a believed before I did it **198 bites in one minute**. That’s over **3 bites per second**.

The rules are strict so each bite has to be small, precise, and fast. There’s no time to swallow (even though swallowing is allowed), so I had to spit out the bites while keeping the apples in motion (but only after my mouth couldn’t hold anymore to be efficient). It’s a chaotic, intense, and utterly exhilarating challenge.  I even had to struggle with apple juice in my eye during the attempt.  The Guinness adjudicator was on hand to verify the attempt on the spot, and I walked away with the official certificate. This record is one of the hardest I’ve ever broken, and I’m incredibly proud of the result. 

**Why This Record Matters** Ok, so it doesn’t… not really, but it’s not just about biting apples or juggling—it’s about pushing mself. It’s a reminder that with focus, determination, and a willingness to embrace the absurd, we can achieve extraordinary things. When I first set this record in 2018, I never thought I’d break it again. But in 2024, I proved to myself that even the most challenging goals can be surpassed with hard work and persistence.

 Thank you for following my journey! If you’ve ever thought about attempting something unconventional or seemingly impossible, let this be your sign to go for it. — *#GuinnessWorldRecord #RecordBreaker #DavidRush #Juggling #Apples #Inspiration #London*
