My name is Raderly Sterling and I hold the Guinness World Record for the most fire breaths in 30 seconds
0:10
Today I'm going to show you a few of the things that I have learned how to do over the course of my 20 plus year career as a fire performer
0:18
We can do a finger transfer. I'm going to calm the flame's oxygen, alright, with my mouth. Okay
0:27
I've extinguished one. I can use my tongue. Okay. Which is one of my favorite tricks, I gotta say
0:36
But just remember, it's dangerous. Never do this at home. I decided to take this record on almost by accident
0:43
I was working on a new fire breathing technique with my fire troop
0:47
Just started blowing many fireballs as I could in rhythm to some music
0:54
We just kept going and adding more and more. And eventually one day we just asked
0:58
how many am I doing and what is the record? And I was almost there already
1:03
So we're like, oh, I could totally do this. As a mother of two kids and someone who's not athletic
1:10
or not someone who really thought about ever holding a world record
1:14
I wanted to be able to show other people who are like me
1:18
that we can do that too. It feels amazing to hold a Guinness World Record title. Ah
1:25
Five, four, three, two, one. One of my favorite things is telling my high school students
1:33
that I teach every day that their teacher in fact is cool
1:37
I also love being able to talk about it with other people
1:42
I just love being able to be proud of myself that way
1:47
It's really wonderful. My record is 68 fire breaths in 30 seconds
