We've all tried our hand at throwing frogs, but rarely have any of us managed to get a flat pebble to bounce more than a few times before sinking. Now meet Kurt Steiner, the record holder in frog throwing, who managed to throw a stone that bounced over the leader 88 times! 88 times! Watch and learn.
Kurt Steiner is Messi or Federer throwing frogs. His pebble is on the surface of the water jumped as many as 88 times before it sinks, while we mere mortals are happy if it jumps a few times. What kind of magic is this?! How long does it take to practice something like this?

Now quickly train to the coast or bank. Because records are meant to be broken.
