Record breaking night |  |
The whole concept is to have a series of 'records' and try and break them.
Ideas or examples include:- who has the highest vertical leap (use chalk on a wall)
- who can 'sit' leaning against a wall with legs at right angles for the longest
- who can fly a paper airplane the furtherest
- who can memorize the most sequential numbers
- who can solve a rubix cube the quickest
- number of throws of a frisbee or flying disc between two or three people without it hitting the ground
- quickest time for undoing a human knot game
- see comments below for more ideas
The night works best if you keep track of previous year's records (and the name of the people who set them) and aim to beat previous years. We have a wooden board with the records painted on. The more you can pump this up, the better.
Try and have a good mix of physical, intellectual, etc. and take care to ensure those who may not be as 'gifted' don't feel left out!
