It's widely accepted that if you can turn one of your favorite hobbies into a career, you'll never work another day in your life.

For some people, it's collecting their favorite memorabilia, while others might turn a favorite pastime into an entire career. For Boise's, David "Record Breaker" Rush, it's...  well, breaking records!

A man of many talents

David Rush has made a name for himself by smashing several Guinness World Records. The number of records he's broken can be attributed to skill, patience, and determination.

Most people should agree, however, that the primary skill on display is simple creativity.

The way Rush's mind works is truly something to behold. You might look at his records and think: "Why?"

We look at his records and think: "Wow."

Using his powers for good

Rush has broken more than 300 records and has used his record-breaking platform to inspire others. According to his website, Rush was named by LA Weekly as one of the Top 10 Speakers in North America for 2023. He's even written a book to inspire others with his feats called Breaking Records: 21 Lessons From 21 World Record Attempts.

As if that's not enough, Rush even has an Electrical Engineering degree from MIT on top of the master's degree he earned from Boise State according to his website.

Now, Rush has added another ridiculous record to his growing list of world records broken.

"Farthest Distance to Blow a Playing Card"

Like we said, the man is creative! Rush recently set the record for "Farthest Distance to Blow a Playing Card" with a distance of 33 feet and 4.78 inches.

While it might sound easy, it's a lot harder than it sounds. Take a look!
