“Special K” Daley attempted to break the world record for spinning a basketball on his head for longer then 19 seconds Wednesday at the 2012 BookExpo of America in the booth of Guinness Book of World Records. “Special K” was unsuccessful, but that didn’t stop him from attempting to break the record for longest time for spinning the ball on his nose. Even with fellow Globetrotter “Tiny” Sturgess (who stands 7’8″) on hand for moral support “Special K” was unable to break the record.
Sturgess is actually already in the Guinness Book of World Records as the tallest professional basketball player. Asked about his incredible height “Tiny” saw it both ways. “I am using it for my advantage right now, and it also got me in the Guinness World Record book too so it’s pretty cool. I would say the day-to-day stuff that you guys take advantage of is a disadvantage for me.”
