Guinness World Records in Sports

In a single outing, Kohler set four new world records, including Most Pool Balls Potted Into the Middle Pocket Over an Obstacle in One Minute (75), Fastest Time to Jump Pot 15 Pool Balls (5.69 seconds), Fastest Time to Jump Pot 15 Pool Balls One Handed (12.16 seconds), and Highest Jump Post of a Billiard Ball (55.3 cm/21.77 in).

BALL-SPINNING RECORD

Earlier Kohler set another basketball-flavored world record with the Longest Time to Spin a Billiards Ball (27.28 seconds).
