David Rush, a resident of the American state of Idaho, set himself an unusual goal.

The man is trying to set the maximum number of records that will be entered into the Guinness Book of Records.

So, about four years ago, he tried to set another record, which consisted of holding a running lawn mower on his chin.

It must be admitted that he managed to do it – the American held this position for 3 minutes 52 seconds.

True, the results were cancelled due to the lack of a grass catcher in the mower.

While the trial was ongoing, another man named Ashrita Furman decided to try his hand at a similar endeavor.

With a result of 7 minutes 2 seconds, he managed to surpass Rush.

However, David did not give up and made a second attempt, setting a new record of 9 minutes 17 seconds.

The persistent American currently holds 165 world records.
