Local man achieves another Guinness World Record, hopes to continue journey to set more

Abbotsfordsa国际传媒檚 Sandeep Singh Kaila is conquering charts on the Guinness World Records - one ball at a time.

Kaila made headlines several years ago by smashing the GWR mark for spinning a basketball on a toothbrush - a record he still holds to this day.

However, he told The News that his desire to continue to break records wouldnsa国际传媒檛 go away. And thatsa国际传媒檚 when he picked up an American football.

After some research, he quickly realized that there are no official records for anything related to spinning an American football. Months of training and perfecting his spinning technique followed, and then on July 1, 2021 in Abbotsford he established a new record - 21.66 seconds spinning an American football on one finger.

Kaila said he chose Canada Day to set the record as a way to dedicate the achievement to all Canadian people. He added that he is proud to see his name in the book and online.

He also admitted that he enjoys some of the fame that comes with achieving the records.

Kaila said he is not giving up in his pursuit for additional records, noting that he is moving on to setting records for spinning a rugby ball and then a volleyball. The rugby ball record has not yet been set and he will then move on to breaking whatever is set for spinning a volleyball.

He then hinted he may also enter the world of competitive eating, adding that someone he knows has challenged him. He said hesa国际传媒檚 like to make it into the GWR for eating as well.
