He's an uptake star
No, motherfucker, you didn't do push-ups before the charity event.
Before the charity event, yeah. I try not to be swole at charity events. It's not a good look.
Hey, what's up, son? Loosen up your rotator cuff. Nathan and I are in the Guinness Book of World Records. I'm in there twice. Twice? And you're in there, what, just one time, son? Only one time. I need more. I don't have any more. Oh, you don't even have any more. That's right.
You've been removed.
I'm sorry. All right. I got to go. I'll holler at you later, man. Oh, wow. Wait, what are your records?
Well, that's as good a place as any to start. What world records do you hold?
I hit a golf ball the furthest with the longest usable golf club in the world. 36 feet and one inch was length of the club.
Okay, just put that in perspective, Monica. You know the gray trailer sitting over there? Yeah. That's 26 foot. So 10 feet longer than that trailer was the club he was using. What? Did you have to have something in the middle for a pivot?
No, I was on a podium. Okay. Because you can't stand. The podium wasn't much higher than this table, so I had to stand up on that. I had to rotate. And you can't fucking, 30 fucking six feet long. You can't, ain't none of this shit. No, no, no, no, no. It had to be a control shit and smack the ball. I forget what the record was for distance, but I out drove it. Not that it drove far. It was a couple hundred feet. That's pretty good. I was expecting like 40 feet. Oh, no, no, no. Much longer.
A couple hundred feet. No, no. Yeah, be careful because people could check this.
Yeah, it's in the book.
So maybe not a couple hundred feet, but it was far. Okay. How did you find yourself in this position? Is this something you completely orchestrated on your own?
How did Anthony Anderson break the golf ball distance record?
No, I was invited to do it. So if you go to Topgolf right now, They played a video on Topgolf. It's been playing there for years. Because I did it at a Topgolf in Vegas. Okay, great. I forget who invited me or how I got involved with it, but they asked me to come down and do it. And I was like, yeah. So I got a couple of surprises and whacked a motherfucker. And then when I hit it and broke the record, they had a fucking marching band come out. Oh, you're kidding. That I had no idea was happening. It was like, he broke the record and his whole marching band, like 50 or 60 people with instruments. Wow.
