June 5 (UPI) — An Idaho man kept five balloons in the air for over a minute by himself to break a world record he described as more difficult than juggling.

David Rush, who holds the most concurrent Guinness World Records titles, took on the record for the longest duration to keep five balloons in the air after previously setting the team of two version of the record at 16 minutes and 25 seconds.

Rush said he found keeping balloons up to be more complicated than standard juggling.

“Unlike juggling balls, which follow predictable trajectories, balloons are chaotic. They drift, they collide, and they move behind you in ways that make tracking all five at once nearly impossible,” he wrote online.

Rush said it took him 17 attempts at the West Boise YMCA to reach Guinness World Records’ goal of 1 minute. He ended up taking the record with a time of 1 minute and 14.89 seconds.

“It was a relief to finally secure the title, but this experience served as a great reminder: sometimes the simplest-looking tasks are the ones that push you the furthest. Whether it’s balancing chainsaws or keeping party balloons off the ground, the goal is always to find the rhythm in the chaos,” he said.
