Longest continuous pogo stick bouncing session

What to remember

20 hours and 13 minutes: that is how long James Roumeliotis kept bouncing on a pogo stick without stopping, the longest session on record. Over that time he logged 206,864 bounces.

A pogo stick is a pole with a handle at the top, footrests near the bottom and a spring somewhere along its length; newer designs use other high-performance technologies. The rider stands on the footrests and bends the knees to work the spring, which launches them back up on every rebound.

It is used as a toy, as exercise equipment and as an extreme sports instrument. Roumeliotis's record is about something else: the length of one session without a break.
