An Idaho man who already holds more than 300 Guinness World Records titles added another to his collection by using a cone to catch ice cream from a distance of 55 feet, 5 inches. The feat was recorded as a new entry among his long-running string of certified accomplishments.
The man’s latest accomplishment continues a pattern of highly specific and often unusual physical challenges that have earned him repeated recognition from Guinness World Records. Guinness typically measures such attempts precisely and requires documentation to verify that a submission meets its rules; the 55-foot, 5-inch measurement places this ice-cream-catching achievement among the long-distance and novelty categories that the organization tracks. The new record increased the man’s tally to more than 300 certified titles, underscoring the breadth of his record-setting activities.
Guinness World Records has long cataloged a wide range of human achievements, from athletic feats to niche stunts, and it maintains a process for certifying records that includes exact measurements, witness statements or video evidence, and adherence to specific guidelines for each category. The ice-cream-catching record follows that same model of tightly defined parameters—a single, measurable action that can be verified by distance and outcome. The measurement involved, 55 feet, 5 inches, is the defining metric for the record as reported.
This latest achievement adds to an extensive portfolio of records for the Idaho man, whose accumulation of more than 300 titles places him among the most prolific holders of Guinness World Records. The continued addition of new entries to his record count illustrates the evolving nature of Guinness’s catalog and the continuing appetite for novel, quantifiable performances that can be documented and compared across attempts.
While the specifics of how the attempt was staged, where it took place, or who assisted were not detailed, the outcome—an ice cream cone used to catch ice cream at a measured distance of 55 feet, 5 inches—has been recorded as a successful new entry to his list of titles. The accomplishment is the latest example of themed record attempts that combine skill, precision and spectacle, and it reflects the kinds of one-off challenges that often draw public attention and media coverage.
As of this entry, the man’s record count stands at more than 300 Guinness World Records titles, with the ice-cream-catching distance listed among them. The addition marks another point in a long-running series of certified attempts and contributes to the continuing record of unconventional achievements that Guinness World Records compiles and verifies.
