How this record is judged

Longest verified hold wins. Every entry is a verified WDHC hang reviewed on video. Only adult (18+) athletes are listed here.

Two towels of similar length draped over a regulation bar. One towel per hand. Grip the towel, not the bar. No knots that create a stirrup or loop you can sit in. Clock starts when feet leave the floor.
