May 22 (UPI) — The Idaho man who holds the most concurrent Guinness World Records titles added another accomplishment to his tally by donning 32 T-shirts in one minute.
David Rush, whose previous T-shirt related records include the most t-shirts put on in 30 seconds and the fastest time to put on 10 T-shirts, tackled the title for the most T-shirts put on in one minute by an individual.
Rush said the record has its own unique challenges.
“The issue is how quickly the mechanics of this break down. Once you get past the tenth shirt you are not just fighting the clock anymore because you are fighting the fabric. Each layer compresses and your arms lose range of motion. You are essentially wrestling a straitjacket,” Rush wrote online.
Rush, who had to don 25 T-shirts to break the record, ended up putting on 35 shirts in the allotted time — but three of them were disqualified by Guinness World Records.
He said the disqualifications were “most likely because those specific hems did not fully clear the waistline under the pressure of the massive stack.”
Rush’s official total was 32, more than enough to take the title.
