1
00:00:06,220 --> 00:00:08,458
Alright, folks. My name is David Rush.

2
00:00:08,458 --> 00:00:10,853
Who's ready for some entertainment?

3
00:00:10,853 --> 00:00:14,105
It's the entertainment
section of the show.

4
00:00:14,105 --> 00:00:18,237
My life took a slight detour
three and half years ago

5
00:00:18,237 --> 00:00:22,785
when I juggled
for six minutes, 34 seconds,

6
00:00:22,785 --> 00:00:25,055
wearing a blindfold,

7
00:00:25,055 --> 00:00:28,529
breaking my very first
Guinness World Records title.

8
00:00:28,529 --> 00:00:30,663
I did it to promote STEM Education -

9
00:00:30,663 --> 00:00:32,527
science, technology, engineering, math.

10
00:00:32,527 --> 00:00:33,715
I'm passionate about it,

11
00:00:33,715 --> 00:00:35,790
and you can see it's a tangible example,

12
00:00:35,790 --> 00:00:37,892
that you've set your mind to a goal,

13
00:00:37,892 --> 00:00:40,841
believe in yourself,
and pursue it with a passion,

14
00:00:40,841 --> 00:00:44,046
you can accomplish virtually anything.

15
00:00:44,046 --> 00:00:46,996
You see, too many students,
they grow up and fail a math test,

16
00:00:46,997 --> 00:00:48,228
struggle at science,

17
00:00:48,228 --> 00:00:49,509
and are told by somebody,

18
00:00:49,509 --> 00:00:53,279
"Hey, you should focus on something else
because you're not very good at this."

19
00:00:53,279 --> 00:00:54,389
Well,

20
00:00:54,389 --> 00:00:56,125
I've read a fair amount of research

21
00:00:56,125 --> 00:00:58,777
that suggests that
this is simply not true.

22
00:00:58,777 --> 00:01:01,923
When I was in second grade,
I tried out for the Gifted Program.

23
00:01:01,923 --> 00:01:06,316
I took a test, and I failed.
I didn't get in

24
00:01:06,316 --> 00:01:07,514
I wasn't smart enough.

25
00:01:07,514 --> 00:01:09,097
I tried out again in fifth grade,

26
00:01:09,097 --> 00:01:11,840
and I did get in but only for math.

27
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:13,428
Does that mean I couldn't be good

28
00:01:13,428 --> 00:01:15,301
at science, history, art or literature?

29
00:01:15,301 --> 00:01:18,087
I kept working hard,
and by the time I finished high school

30
00:01:18,087 --> 00:01:21,058
I was offered admission into MIT,

31
00:01:21,058 --> 00:01:23,162
where I got my electrical
engineering degree,

32
00:01:23,162 --> 00:01:24,741
and I tell you it kicked my butt.

33
00:01:24,741 --> 00:01:26,841
But every time I was challenged,

34
00:01:26,842 --> 00:01:27,912
every time I failed,


35
00:01:27,912 --> 00:01:30,883
I used it as an opportunity
to improve and learn.

36
00:01:30,883 --> 00:01:34,999
And who here has ever said,
"I don't remember names well."

37
00:01:34,999 --> 00:01:37,508
"I've got to left feet, can't dance."

38
00:01:37,508 --> 00:01:39,904
"I'm not a great leader."
"I'm not a good speaker."

39
00:01:39,904 --> 00:01:41,895
"I get angry easily."

40
00:01:41,895 --> 00:01:43,749
Something's holding you back.

41
00:01:43,749 --> 00:01:45,041
Well, I'm here to tell you

42
00:01:45,041 --> 00:01:47,349
that if you approach life 
with a growth mindset,

43
00:01:47,349 --> 00:01:49,793
this idea that 
you can get better at anything,

44
00:01:49,793 --> 00:01:51,453
you really can.

45
00:01:51,985 --> 00:01:54,442
All of these things can be learned,

46
00:01:54,650 --> 00:01:55,220
and developed,

47
00:01:55,220 --> 00:01:56,882
and improved upon,

48
00:01:56,882 --> 00:02:00,650
and I break a Guinness World Records
as an example of that.

49
00:02:00,650 --> 00:02:04,038
So what happens when you approach life 
with a growth mindset and grit?

50
00:02:04,038 --> 00:02:09,668
Well, today I am going to attempt to break
my 100th Guiness World Record.

51
00:02:09,668 --> 00:02:14,792
In fact, more accurately, it is my 98th,
99th and 100th Guiness World Record today.

52
00:02:14,792 --> 00:02:17,179
Now, many of them are silly or esoteric,

53
00:02:17,179 --> 00:02:21,656
like I have the fastest mile run,
balancing a raw egg

54
00:02:21,656 --> 00:02:24,566
on a spoon in my mouth.

55
00:02:25,926 --> 00:02:28,176
Eight minutes and two seconds.

56
00:02:28,176 --> 00:02:29,500
(Laughter)

57
00:02:29,824 --> 00:02:32,774
(Applause)

58
00:02:33,894 --> 00:02:38,584
Sure. It was difficult,
but not very many people try.

59
00:02:39,309 --> 00:02:40,593
But there are some records

60
00:02:40,593 --> 00:02:42,759
I'm really, really excited
about and proud of,

61
00:02:42,759 --> 00:02:46,804
I have the record for 
most consecutive axe juggling catches.

62
00:02:46,804 --> 00:02:52,596
Three three-pound axes juggled 839 times
before I finally fatigued and dropped one.

63
00:02:52,596 --> 00:02:56,716
I have the record for longest duration
balancing a ladder on my chin.

64
00:02:56,716 --> 00:02:59,470
The most bowling balls juggled.

65
00:02:59,470 --> 00:03:00,760
It's three.

66
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:02,317
(Laughter)

67
00:03:02,317 --> 00:03:07,467
I've now juggled blindfolded,
for more than 22 minutes.

68
00:03:07,467 --> 00:03:09,551
And then there was that holy grail record,

69
00:03:09,551 --> 00:03:11,982
that one I didn't think 
I'd ever be able to break,

70
00:03:11,982 --> 00:03:15,402
which was the most 
juggling catches in one minute.

71
00:03:15,746 --> 00:03:16,751
If I broke that one,

72
00:03:16,751 --> 00:03:21,271
I could become the fastest
juggler in the world.

73
00:03:21,603 --> 00:03:23,332
But I didn't think I could break it.

74
00:03:23,332 --> 00:03:27,343
And I'd been juggling for a long time,
so I practiced and I got my baseline.

75
00:03:27,343 --> 00:03:29,306
It was like, "OK, this is how fast I am,"

76
00:03:29,306 --> 00:03:32,178
and I practiced over the weeks,
and I didn't get much better.

77
00:03:32,178 --> 00:03:34,483
So I said, "You know,
that's not going to happen.

78
00:03:34,483 --> 00:03:36,033
There's no way I could do that."

79
00:03:36,033 --> 00:03:38,098
When I was in recess in grade school,

80
00:03:38,098 --> 00:03:41,716
I was the one that was picked last
for two-hand touch football

81
00:03:41,716 --> 00:03:44,427
because I couldn't catch the ball!

82
00:03:44,427 --> 00:03:46,924
Who might've think
I can catch more balls in a minute

83
00:03:46,924 --> 00:03:49,834
than anyone has ever
caught before while juggling?

84
00:03:50,268 --> 00:03:52,685
There are also thousands
of professional jugglers.

85
00:03:52,685 --> 00:03:54,440
They do this as their full-time job.

86
00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,194
I work at Cradlepoint,
a technology company here in Boise.

87
00:03:57,194 --> 00:03:58,494
I've been there nine years.

88
00:03:58,494 --> 00:04:01,526
I have my lunches, evenings and weekends.

89
00:04:01,526 --> 00:04:04,309
I also have two kids under three years old

90
00:04:04,309 --> 00:04:06,059
and a very supportive wife.

91
00:04:06,059 --> 00:04:07,249
(Laughter)

92
00:04:08,984 --> 00:04:11,434
But after I broke
a few Guiness World Records,

93
00:04:11,998 --> 00:04:13,528
I bought in.

94
00:04:14,033 --> 00:04:17,148
I developed a growth mindset 
about anything in life.

95
00:04:17,148 --> 00:04:19,995
You can improve on anything
with no hard upper limit.

96
00:04:19,995 --> 00:04:22,918
So I started practicing
for this Guiness World Record,

97
00:04:22,918 --> 00:04:25,370
not with the hope
that maybe I might break it,

98
00:04:25,370 --> 00:04:27,442
but with the belief
I was going to break it;

99
00:04:27,442 --> 00:04:28,472
I knew I was.

100
00:04:28,472 --> 00:04:30,720
It was just a matter of
when was it going to be?

101
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:32,680
Because I practiced every day for a year,

102
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,791
and after a year of practice,
I got 428 catches in one minute,

103
00:04:36,791 --> 00:04:40,174
becoming the fastest
juggler in the world.

104
00:04:40,854 --> 00:04:43,554
(Applause)

105
00:04:43,563 --> 00:04:44,561
Thank you.

106
00:04:44,561 --> 00:04:46,326
But it didn't end there.

107
00:04:46,326 --> 00:04:48,675
Somebody else broke my record.

108
00:04:48,675 --> 00:04:51,262
So I had to go back 
with a renewed passion and vigor,

109
00:04:51,262 --> 00:04:54,022
and now I hold the record
for the world's fastest juggling,

110
00:04:54,022 --> 00:04:57,250
with 556 catches in one minute.

111
00:04:57,250 --> 00:05:00,414
That's over nine and a quarter
catches per second.

112
00:05:00,414 --> 00:05:03,894
And I thought seven was impossible.

113
00:05:06,074 --> 00:05:07,853
3.5 years ago,

114
00:05:07,853 --> 00:05:11,021
if you'd have asked me when I broke
my first Guinness World Record

115
00:05:11,021 --> 00:05:13,236
if I could possibly break 10 by today,

116
00:05:13,236 --> 00:05:15,796
I would have told you
that is a far stretch.

117
00:05:15,796 --> 00:05:20,179
But if you ask me today if I think I can
break one Guinness World Record per week,

118
00:05:20,509 --> 00:05:23,942
I would tell you yes, with confidence

119
00:05:23,942 --> 00:05:26,002
because I did it last year.

120
00:05:26,527 --> 00:05:31,014
So today, I'm going to attempt to break
three Guinness World Records live

121
00:05:31,014 --> 00:05:33,754
in the next 10 minutes on stage.

122
00:05:33,754 --> 00:05:36,627
And so I'm going to welcome up
the witnesses and timekeepers

123
00:05:36,627 --> 00:05:40,292
who are going to validate this attempt
along with my friend here Chris Knight,

124
00:05:40,292 --> 00:05:42,968
and we are going to attempt
to break three world records.

125
00:05:42,968 --> 00:05:45,166
The first one is
a partner record, Chris and I.

126
00:05:45,166 --> 00:05:49,746
The record is most ping pong balls
caught in one minute

127
00:05:50,891 --> 00:05:52,271
with chopsticks.

128
00:05:52,271 --> 00:05:55,108
(Laughter)

129
00:05:55,454 --> 00:05:59,794
When I first practiced
this record, I caught two.

130
00:06:00,315 --> 00:06:03,235
The current record is 31;

131
00:06:03,235 --> 00:06:05,765
31 ping pong balls caught
with chopsticks in a minute.

132
00:06:05,765 --> 00:06:09,133
Now, the rules simply state -
and Guinness has some very strict rules -

133
00:06:09,133 --> 00:06:13,593
they state that you must throw
the ping pong ball,

134
00:06:13,599 --> 00:06:15,629
catch it cleanly with the chopsticks,

135
00:06:15,629 --> 00:06:19,161
and then deposit -
it has to bounce once and only once -

136
00:06:19,161 --> 00:06:21,548
catch cleanly, and then
deposit it in a container.

137
00:06:21,548 --> 00:06:24,202
We're going to use
an upturned frisbee as our container.

138
00:06:24,202 --> 00:06:26,600
Chris and I have one world record
together already:

139
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,143
most frisbee passes in one minute, at 110.

140
00:06:29,143 --> 00:06:33,554
I've got folks - to validate for Guinness,
I've got two people acting as timers,

141
00:06:33,554 --> 00:06:37,094
two as witnesses, I've got all these
videos running, photographic evidence,

142
00:06:37,094 --> 00:06:38,763
we'll submit it for approval later.

143
00:06:38,763 --> 00:06:43,653
The current record is 31; remember
the first time we practiced, I got two.

144
00:06:43,903 --> 00:06:45,275
(Laughter)

145
00:06:45,275 --> 00:06:46,315
Alright.

146
00:06:46,315 --> 00:06:49,643
So timers are going say "Ready, set, go,"
and we'll begin the attempt.

147
00:06:49,643 --> 00:06:52,595
I'm going to count out loud
to give you approximate where I am.

148
00:06:52,595 --> 00:06:55,122
If it hits a finger,
I'm going to recount that number,

149
00:06:55,122 --> 00:06:58,750
so if I say a number twice, you know
I'm just discounting one of the catches.

150
00:06:58,750 --> 00:06:59,910
Alright.

151
00:06:59,910 --> 00:07:00,960
(Laughter)

152
00:07:01,395 --> 00:07:02,991
Witnesses ready.

153
00:07:02,991 --> 00:07:04,651
Timers ready.

154
00:07:05,094 --> 00:07:06,094
Get closer.

155
00:07:06,991 --> 00:07:08,094
Okay.

156
00:07:08,094 --> 00:07:10,514
Witness: Ready, set, go.

157
00:07:10,753 --> 00:07:14,032
David Rush: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,

158
00:07:14,032 --> 00:07:19,142
6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13,

159
00:07:19,142 --> 00:07:25,112
14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23,

160
00:07:25,112 --> 00:07:31,239
24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33,

161
00:07:31,239 --> 00:07:37,609
34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42,

162
00:07:38,309 --> 00:07:44,999
43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52,

163
00:07:45,118 --> 00:07:48,118
53, 54, 55, 56,

164
00:07:49,886 --> 00:07:56,156
57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66,

165
00:07:56,156 --> 00:08:02,681
67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76,

166
00:08:02,681 --> 00:08:05,644
77, 78, 79, 80

167
00:08:06,530 --> 00:08:07,920
81, 82

168
00:08:09,112 --> 00:08:10,131
(Laughter)

169
00:08:10,131 --> 00:08:11,152
82!

170
00:08:11,152 --> 00:08:12,842
Come on!
(Applause)

171
00:08:12,842 --> 00:08:14,082
Whoo!

172
00:08:18,780 --> 00:08:20,420
82 on that one,

173
00:08:22,590 --> 00:08:25,930
83 on that one but we discounted one.
Alright, so that's good.

174
00:08:25,930 --> 00:08:28,338
So one record down.

175
00:08:28,709 --> 00:08:30,158
(Cheers)

176
00:08:30,158 --> 00:08:31,648
How we feeling?

177
00:08:31,648 --> 00:08:33,619
(Applause) (Cheers)

178
00:08:34,850 --> 00:08:38,338
This next record combines a couple of
different skills I've worked on.

179
00:08:38,338 --> 00:08:41,065
One is a lot of weight-lifting
activities I need to do

180
00:08:41,065 --> 00:08:45,285
to juggle bowling balls and axes
and balance heavy objects on my chin.

181
00:08:45,285 --> 00:08:49,372
So it combines strength training
with the fast touch,

182
00:08:49,372 --> 00:08:52,524
the fast-twitch muscles I use
for speed juggling.

183
00:08:52,524 --> 00:08:54,445
And so for this record

184
00:08:54,445 --> 00:08:56,247
I'm going to attempt

185
00:08:57,237 --> 00:08:59,061
the fastest time

186
00:08:59,541 --> 00:09:05,243
to pass a 20-pound weight
from hand to hand 100 times.

187
00:09:05,243 --> 00:09:07,890
So I have a 20-pound
kettlebell right there.

188
00:09:07,890 --> 00:09:11,359
I'll start with my right hand,
and I need it to pass into my left hand,

189
00:09:11,359 --> 00:09:14,749
back to right hand, left, right 100 times.

190
00:09:15,045 --> 00:09:17,935
The time to beat is 18 seconds.

191
00:09:18,775 --> 00:09:22,305
If you do the math,
that is over five passes per second

192
00:09:22,305 --> 00:09:26,785
times 20 pounds, so 100 pounds
of passed weight per second,

193
00:09:27,394 --> 00:09:30,764
until I get to do 2000 pounds
of passed weight.

194
00:09:33,433 --> 00:09:35,196
I'm going to be doing this very fast.

195
00:09:35,196 --> 00:09:40,186
It's going to be very difficult to count,
so I am going to count every other pass.

196
00:09:41,713 --> 00:09:44,263
I'll start with my right hand
and go to my left hand,

197
00:09:44,263 --> 00:09:49,073
and when it goes back to my right
I'll say 1, 2, 3, 4 and so forth.

198
00:09:49,073 --> 00:09:51,203
I do a little warm-up here.

199
00:09:51,203 --> 00:09:53,395
This'll give you an idea
of what it looks like.

200
00:09:53,395 --> 00:09:56,023
Now, I get asked what I'm doing
in the gym all the time.

201
00:09:56,023 --> 00:09:57,463
(Laughter)

202
00:09:57,727 --> 00:10:00,657
"What are you training for?
Are you like a mountain climber?"

203
00:10:00,657 --> 00:10:02,957
I say, "Well, I'm training
to pass a kettlebell

204
00:10:02,957 --> 00:10:05,647
back and forth between my hands."

205
00:10:08,943 --> 00:10:09,963
Alright.

206
00:10:09,963 --> 00:10:14,532
So, for this to work I've got to weigh it
right before and right after the attempt.

207
00:10:14,532 --> 00:10:16,902
I've got a scale here. We'll put it down.

208
00:10:16,902 --> 00:10:22,332
Twenty-pound kettlebell
reads 20 pounds, 9.9 ounces.

209
00:10:22,484 --> 00:10:26,484
Walmart, you sold me
a 9.9-ounce heavy kettlebell.

210
00:10:26,637 --> 00:10:27,967
Alright.

211
00:10:34,884 --> 00:10:37,014
It stopped recording.

212
00:10:40,179 --> 00:10:42,919
Alright. I'm going to reweigh it
just to make [sure].

213
00:10:43,134 --> 00:10:44,214
Here we go.

214
00:10:44,242 --> 00:10:49,632
Kettlebell, 20 pounds,
9.8 ounces, on film.

215
00:10:50,528 --> 00:10:52,118
(Exhales)

216
00:10:58,424 --> 00:11:01,524
Is anybody in the audience feeling
irrationally nervous right now?

217
00:11:01,524 --> 00:11:03,094
(Laughter)

218
00:11:03,651 --> 00:11:05,931
And you're not even trying
to break the record.

219
00:11:05,931 --> 00:11:07,166
(Laughter)

220
00:11:07,166 --> 00:11:10,766
Alright. Timers ready. Witnesses ready.

221
00:11:14,372 --> 00:11:15,392
Okay.

222
00:11:16,527 --> 00:11:18,527
Witness: Ready, set, go.

223
00:11:18,527 --> 00:11:22,142
DR: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13,

224
00:11:22,142 --> 00:11:24,822
14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23,

225
00:11:24,822 --> 00:11:26,012
24, 25, 26, 27 -

226
00:11:26,012 --> 00:11:29,652
Oh, I touched it with both hands
at the same time.

227
00:11:29,652 --> 00:11:31,352
I bet she saw it.

228
00:11:31,595 --> 00:11:32,972
(Laughter)

229
00:11:35,122 --> 00:11:38,364
If two hands touch it at the same time,
it disqualifies the attempt.

230
00:11:38,364 --> 00:11:41,854
You can't see it in fast-motion video,
but in slow-motion video, we would.

231
00:11:41,854 --> 00:11:45,364
So I'm going to have to start
back over here, reweighing it -

232
00:11:45,585 --> 00:11:48,335
20 pounds, 9.7 ounces.

233
00:11:50,085 --> 00:11:52,295
Timers and witnesses ready.

234
00:11:52,860 --> 00:11:53,770
(Exhales)

235
00:11:53,770 --> 00:11:55,310
Let's go.

236
00:11:55,310 --> 00:11:57,180
Witness: Ready, set, go.

237
00:11:57,243 --> 00:11:59,733
DR: 1, oop, let's start.

238
00:12:01,343 --> 00:12:02,453
Reset.

239
00:12:02,453 --> 00:12:03,443
Okay.

240
00:12:03,443 --> 00:12:06,139
Witness: Ready, set, go.

241
00:12:06,139 --> 00:12:09,799
DR: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,
7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13,

242
00:12:09,799 --> 00:12:12,749
14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23,

243
00:12:12,749 --> 00:12:15,459
24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33,

244
00:12:15,459 --> 00:12:18,219
34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42,

245
00:12:18,219 --> 00:12:21,369
43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50.

246
00:12:21,369 --> 00:12:22,529
Come on!

247
00:12:22,529 --> 00:12:23,999
(Cheers) (Applause)

248
00:12:23,999 --> 00:12:25,389
Whoo!

249
00:12:29,484 --> 00:12:31,854
Let me look at the stopwatches here.

250
00:12:34,815 --> 00:12:38,795
Oh yes, weigh it on film
right before and right after.

251
00:12:38,795 --> 00:12:41,115
There, you're seeing the weight 20.9.

252
00:12:41,115 --> 00:12:45,045
It looks like we are at 14.9 seconds.

253
00:12:45,045 --> 00:12:46,535
Come on!

254
00:12:46,535 --> 00:12:48,015
(Applause)

255
00:12:50,219 --> 00:12:53,309
Two down, one to go.

256
00:12:53,729 --> 00:12:55,249
Alright, so for this last one,

257
00:12:55,249 --> 00:12:56,859
I'm like, "What can I do

258
00:12:56,859 --> 00:12:59,482
to make this 100th Guiness
World Record feel special?"

259
00:12:59,676 --> 00:13:03,013
Like TEDx, TED talks -
it's like a birthday.

260
00:13:03,013 --> 00:13:06,773
It's a milestone and a mark, so the record
I'm going to attempt to break -

261
00:13:07,666 --> 00:13:12,316
it's for the most candles
lit in the mouth.

262
00:13:12,491 --> 00:13:13,666
(Laughter)

263
00:13:13,666 --> 00:13:16,796
They've got to be full-sized,
taper candles.

264
00:13:17,342 --> 00:13:20,382
The current record is 41.

265
00:13:21,332 --> 00:13:24,552
But it's my 100th Guiness World Record,

266
00:13:24,552 --> 00:13:28,342
and so I decided I have to
put 100 candles in my mouth.

267
00:13:28,493 --> 00:13:31,963
And so what I'm going to attempt to do now
is put 100 candles in my mouth,

268
00:13:31,963 --> 00:13:36,933
light them on fire, and then
they have to stay there for 30 seconds.

269
00:13:38,701 --> 00:13:40,211
(Exhales)

270
00:13:41,309 --> 00:13:43,829
Held up by nothing but my hands.

271
00:13:43,829 --> 00:13:45,329
Alright, so here we go.

272
00:13:45,329 --> 00:13:48,749
These are what the taper candles
look like right here.

273
00:13:51,002 --> 00:13:53,462
Get them on film so we can
count them individually.

274
00:13:53,462 --> 00:13:56,022
We counted them all very carefully before.

275
00:13:56,198 --> 00:13:57,618
(Exhales)

276
00:13:58,664 --> 00:14:00,204
Eye protection.

277
00:14:00,354 --> 00:14:03,714
Mike out of the way and at this point
I won't be able to talk anymore,

278
00:14:03,714 --> 00:14:07,032
but when we light all the candles,

279
00:14:07,032 --> 00:14:09,134
I'll release my hand,
time is going to start.

280
00:14:09,134 --> 00:14:10,254
When I hit 30 seconds,

281
00:14:10,254 --> 00:14:12,579
I'm at Guiness World Record number 100.

282
00:14:13,393 --> 00:14:17,454
This is not my core competency,
but I decided I was going to do it anyway.

283
00:14:17,454 --> 00:14:18,610
(Laughter)

284
00:14:19,100 --> 00:14:20,930
(Aargh)

285
00:14:43,653 --> 00:14:45,383
(Makes sound)

286
00:15:37,189 --> 00:15:40,159
(Cheers) (Applause)

287
00:16:07,201 --> 00:16:08,891
Witness: Start!

288
00:16:10,733 --> 00:16:12,953
(Cheers)

289
00:16:14,304 --> 00:16:16,944
(Applause) (Cheers)

290
00:16:28,250 --> 00:16:29,250
20

291
00:16:30,133 --> 00:16:32,643
(Applause) (Cheers)

292
00:16:33,259 --> 00:16:34,259
25

293
00:16:37,997 --> 00:16:38,997
30

294
00:16:38,997 --> 00:16:40,477
DR: Aaargh!

295
00:16:40,477 --> 00:16:42,417
(Applause) (Cheers)

296
00:16:42,996 --> 00:16:45,236
(Whisling)

297
00:16:47,976 --> 00:16:49,676
Come on!

298
00:16:49,676 --> 00:16:50,990
Whoo!

299
00:16:50,994 --> 00:16:52,020
Yes!

300
00:16:52,020 --> 00:16:53,020
Come on!

301
00:16:53,020 --> 00:16:54,357
High fives in the front row!

302
00:16:54,503 --> 00:16:55,973
High fives in the front row!

303
00:16:55,973 --> 00:16:57,723
Come on! Come on!

304
00:16:57,723 --> 00:16:59,943
Whoo! Whoo!

305
00:16:59,943 --> 00:17:01,683
(Cheers) (Applause)

306
00:17:04,381 --> 00:17:05,381
Whoo!

307
00:17:07,490 --> 00:17:09,190
That feels good.

308
00:17:09,702 --> 00:17:11,562
100 world records.

309
00:17:11,829 --> 00:17:13,519
But remember this.

310
00:17:14,170 --> 00:17:17,960
Breaking 100 Guiness World Records
was not the end goal.

311
00:17:18,150 --> 00:17:22,160
This is simply a tangible example
of what you can accomplish

312
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:23,650
if you set your mind to a goal.

313
00:17:23,650 --> 00:17:26,980
Believe in yourself
and purse it with a passion.

314
00:17:26,980 --> 00:17:29,790
And there are some of you
out there that have doubts.

315
00:17:30,123 --> 00:17:32,559
You've told yourself
there's something you can't do,

316
00:17:32,559 --> 00:17:34,775
but you want to do it anyway.

317
00:17:35,122 --> 00:17:38,502
And you wish you could,
but you have these doubts.

318
00:17:38,502 --> 00:17:40,422
What is that thing?

319
00:17:41,592 --> 00:17:43,112
Now go do it.

320
00:17:43,112 --> 00:17:45,652
My name's David Rush.
Enjoy TEDxBoise!

321
00:17:45,652 --> 00:17:47,176
(Applause) (Cheers)
