Abbotsford's Guinness World Record king soon plans to put his money where his balls spin.
Sandeep Singh Kaila, who has several different GWR records over the years, has moved his focus from spinning basketballs to footballs and next year will put up $10,000 of his own money to challenge one person to break all three records he currently owns.
He moved onto spinning a rugby ball on one finger and has held that record of 35.33 seconds since 2022. He also holds the GWR for spinning two footballs at once.
Kaila's new time mark for spinning an American football on one finger of 40.56 seconds was set in March and recently approved by GWR. He decided to attempt the record to celebrate International Women's Day on March 8. The review took several months and he recently received his official documentation.
His previous record was 27 seconds and Kaila explained he wanted to make this one more difficult to beat.
"I wanted to set one unbreakable record," he told The News. "No doubt, records are made to be broken, but I want to set one record that nobody can break again. That's why I've just been improving on that time."
Kaila also established a new GWR of 21.1 seconds for spinning two footballs at once on July 4, 2024. He is waiting on final approval on that number and following that he will launch the $10,000 challenge.
He said it's always a nice feeling to break records, noting that he has now established 13 records so far.
"I'm feeling very well about it all," he said. "Even this time Guinness World Records will be publishing this record [one football] and rugby world record in their book. So I'm very happy to hold it."
But he香蕉视频直播檚 not an overnight sensation, Kaila became fascinated with ball spinning all the way back in 2004. Spinning a volleyball is a popular past time in his native India and he practised for years only to discover that Guinness didn香蕉视频直播檛 track volleyball spinning. He moved on to soccer balls, but again found out that it was only basketball spinning that Guinness officially recognizes. He went on to help create the football and rugby records in the years that followed his first basketball attempts.
Kaila said the $10,000 challenge money will be coming out of his own pocket and that he is likely to give up the world record chasing for the time being.
"I will finish my record 香蕉视频直播� the 13th record will be my last 香蕉视频直播� and after that I'm going to challenge the whole world that if anyone can break my three records I'm going to pay them $10,000 American dollars," he said. "I'm going to challenge the whole world."
All three records have to be broken and approved by GWR in order to earn the cash.
Kaila said that 2025 is going to be an exciting year for him personally, as he is hoping to appear on the show America's Got Talent and then launch the $10,000 challenge.
