Some popping records

In February, 1 268 people from Prestonwood Church in Texas broke a world record for the most people to blow up balloons and pop them all at once by sitting on them.

The record for the fastest time to blow up a balloon with the one’s nose until it pops stands at 10.62 seconds. It was broken by Suresh Gaur from India.

In St Paul, Minnesota, in 2004, 1 434 balloons were used to build the world’s largest balloon arch. The arch measured at 600 feet wide and 340 feet tall, and used up 65 tanks of helium.

The record time for making a balloon animal stands at 2.93 seconds and is held by Ryan Tracey from Northern Ireland.
