American woman breaks Guinness World Record for hula hooping with flaming rings
September 14, 2023
There's only so many things we can handle at once but eight hula hoops on fire is enough for Grace Good to manage.
Good, 30, is joining the 2024 group of Guinness World Record holders for setting the score for balancing the most blazing hoops at once with eight. The previous number was six, set by April Choi from Florida last November.
She reached the feat by training in hula hooping since she discovered the passion at 18, according to Guinness. After finding herself in a friend group with interest in flow arts, a body-mind activity similar to yoga, she started using traditional hula hoops.
"I started with hula hoops and became obsessed with adding more and more," Good shared with Guinness. "Eventually, I was introduced to performing with fire and aerial acrobatics and the rest is history!"
However, one world record is not enough for Guinness who already achieved her first late last year.
Good balanced 28 hula hoops, not in flames, while balancing on a giant rolling ball, setting a new record on Dec. 6, according to the book. She told Guinness the moment she became a record holder was "exhilarating."
"I had been working toward this for a very long time and to finally be able to say that I am a Guinness World Records title holder feels incredible!" she said.
Guinness features world records for other hula hooping achievements from the longest time spinning the rings to spinning the physically longest rings.
Record for longest hula-hooping marathon
Jenny Doan holds the world record for the longest hula-hooping marathon after spinning the rings on her waist for 100 hours, according to Guinness. The Chicago native reached the milestone on Nov. 23, 2019, while raising money for Mental Health America, which promotes mental wellbeing and offers support to people experiencing mental illness.
"Jenny attempted this record to challenge herself physically and emotionally in an ultra-endurance event," Guinness shared.
Record for largest hula hoop spun
Yuya Yamada spun the largest hula hoop in Yokohama, Japan, on Feb. 19, 2019, holding the record in the male category. The band was 5.40 m or 17 feet 8 inches.
"The attempt took place outside and although the weather was cloudy, cold, sometimes slightly raining, Yuya Yamada managed to spin three consecutive qualifying revolutions on the first attempt," Guinness shared.
Getti Kehayova holds the record for spinning the world’s largest hula hoop in the female category with a 5.18 m or 17 feet 0.25-inch ring.
Record for balancing the most fire hoops while doing the splits
Australia native Pippa "The Ripper" Coram has held the record for most fire hoops spun while in splits position since 2012. She broke the record in London after balancing three blazing rings.
Record for most hula hoops spun while roller skating
The score for most hula hoops spun simultaneously while roller skating goes to Clare Brincat who balanced 80 rings in London on Aug. 15. According to Guinness, each hoop was 36 inches. Brincat practiced daily by taking 100 hoops to a local park until she could reach this feat.
