Idaho man walks with running chainsaw on his chin for world record

May 9 (UPI) -- An Idaho man with a hobby of breaking Guinness World Records achieved one of his most dangerous titles by walking 206 feet and 8 inches with a powered chainsaw balanced on his chin.

David Rush, who has broken more than 200 Guinness World Records to promote STEM education, took on the record for farthest distance walked balancing a chainsaw on the chin (powered).

"I tried this record a couple of times before I officially broke it but I was still terrified each time," Rush said. "I wore a helmet, gloves, a thick jacket, a neck gator and long pants but I still felt vulnerable."

Guinness World Records set the minimum distance to originate the record at 32.8 feet, and Rush surpassed the goal by walking 206 feet and 8 inches.
