2001June 16, Lorraine Lomelli, holder of Guinness World Records for Hula Hoops, challenged herself. In Taipei World Trade Exhibition Hall, she successfully broke the Guinness World Record set by herself two years ago by shaking 83 hula hoops at the same time.
In July 2005, a Guinness professional in the United States set a hula hoop record-spinning the world's largest hula hoop. This giant hula hoop is 4.5 meters in diameter and 30 centimeters wider than the Japanese record. In a park in Queens, new york, Furman and his assistant spent a lot of time assembling the 7.3kg aluminum hula hoop, and then Furman wrapped his waist with a foam protector to prevent waist injury. After a simple warm-up, Furman began his challenge. Finally, he flipped 19 times in a row, easily breaking the Guinness World Record.
On May 3rd, 2004, ashrita furman, an American, played a hula hoop while running outside the Kremlin. He is creating his 80th Guinness World Record. Mr Furman once used a hula hoop to run 14 minutes and 40 seconds1200m.
On May 12, 2007, Foreman, a frequent visitor to Guinness World Records, challenged Guinness again. This time, his challenge is also full of novel ideas, turning hula hoops underwater. This hula hoop is a special kind of metal hula hoop, which can be easily rotated on land, but it is not easy to rotate underwater due to the influence of water resistance and buoyancy. This time, he chose to challenge the Dolphin Medical Island in Florida, USA, which provides dolphin treatment for some seriously ill and disabled children, so that dolphins can play with them and bring them happiness and hope. Foreman hopes that his challenge will make more people pay attention to these children who need care. Finally, Foreman stayed underwater for 2 minutes and 20 seconds. His strange behavior not only attracted people's attention, but also attracted many dolphins to "watch the fun".
