World's Longest Table Tennis Rally 2024 | Attempt

[Dan]

Hey guys!! Dan and Lloyd here, we're going to attempt to break the record for the World's Longest Table Tennis Rally!

We have set ourselves the crazy challenge of breaking the world record for the longest table tennis rally, all in support of a charity very close to our hearts: SANDS, the stillbirth and neonatal death charity. Our mission has two goals: to achieve an incredible sporting feat and, more importantly, to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those affected by the heart-breaking loss of a baby.

Our target is to play 1 table tennis rally for 16 hours! The current world record is 11 hours, 50 minutes and 36 seconds. All in memory of the brightest star in the sky: Lily Rae Ives ✨️ So please help us in raising as much as we possibly can! Our Just Giving page is here: https://www.justgiving.com/page/longesttabletennisrally

At 7:00am on June 22nd at PingPod in Bristol, we will embark on our mission to smash the current record for the world's longest table tennis rally! Show your support by donating and joining the livestream to check on our progress.

In before the Donkey ! (Which I hope never happens)

Good stuff @Dan & Co.

Given the overall circumstances of the "event" I kinda doubt that throwing the donkey in would be an appropriate signal, if they happen to mess it up somehow...
That being said: Good luck to both of them.

But @Dan,

Surely you jest, you will have to miss your second breakfast, eleven tea, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner and some wee supper... how is this going to be possible?

C'Mon Y'all... 12 hrs and 4 posts ???

I could create a burner account and start a thread for 393,558th time about how to boost h3 and get 46 replies the first ten hours.

Did you guys stop drinking water in preparation?

What about bathroom breaks?

I’ve seen “senior diapers” in Youtube comments, which makes sense.

Ah I've heard of those being used for things like this. That's definitely going to add to the difficulty. Hard to focus when nature calls!

Right, but otherwise it’s almost impossible to hold pee over 12 hours.

Hey guys thanks for everyone who tuned in and supported today. We're sorry the on demand version is not showing the full version. YouTube only shows up till 12 hours of demand live recording. We will be releasing shorter version very soon 🙏🔥 We managed to achieve 13 hours, 36 minutes and 43 seconds which is a new world record 🙌🏓

Yeah we had a couple of sips of water when we woke up and then had 1 sip every hour during the record. Luckily we both didn't need to you know go to the toilet aha. I think the concentration was so high your body doesn't focus on any of that.

Haha that's correct we had them on... you know just incase 😁

Just for the sake of fair play . The actual time you have recorded is 13 36 24. Look into the video playback.

You're right Igor, thanks for that. We were overwhelmed last night and didn't have the chance to watch back the recording till now. We have the official time from the 2 stop watches from the time keepers and will get a photo of it shortly.
