  10. I did a 70 inch gap yesterday from a bleacher bench to a picnic table,
    It had a one foot drop to it, but I did a the same gap flat (a lower
    bench) for a total of 58 inches. This is the most I have tried and
    measured.

  14. 10 ft = 3.048 m
    9 ft = 2.7432 m
    8.5 ft = 2.5908 m

    To my recollection, the furthest gap was around 2.75m into sand. Either
    your F-ing amazing, or Jesus has filled you mind up to the brim with
    [censored].

  15. When gapping people need to also take into account the drop height cause
    a drop really adds alot to your distance.
    A foot drop added 12 inchs to my distance and I could have easily gone
    further if I had kept on moving the picnic table out further.

  19. I've done 2.87m, on film. We've got our national unicycle weekend coming
    up in a month, so i'm going to try set a new official world record
    then. I believe the current official is 2.65m.

    I've also done a static flat gap of 2.05m
