    David Rush said his first attempt at dribbling a basketball blindfolded lasted for 1 hour, 55 minutes and 21 seconds, but it was disqualified because he sat in a chair during the attempt.

    He made a second attempt, this time in the Guinness-approved standing position.

    "It was much harder on my back, and I had less control," Rush said. "Mistakes were easier to make, but I was determined."

    The attempt ended after 1 hour, 37 minutes and 2 seconds because Rush's required witnesses had to leave. The time was enough for Rush to clinch the record.
