Bedrock Church hosts world record-breaker for marshmallows caught in mouth

A total of 60 marshmallows and 60 seconds — a new world record, declared Shayne Boyle after completing his performance.

The social media star known as "Insane Shayne," drew an audience at Payne Park on July 18, as a central part of Bedrock Church's Family Night, which also featured food trucks and yard games. 

“Bedrock Church reached out to do this event, to do a lot of ... our fun games, but the bigger message being Jesus and us using our unique gifts for his glory,” said Boyle. 

Boyle holds the Guinness World Record for the farthest marshmallow propelled and caught in the mouth, at 73.57 meters, as well as for the most marshmallows kicked and then caught in the mouth in one minute with a team of two, alongside Evan McPherson, as of Feb. 21, 2025. 

Those records were broken during Crossroads Church's "The Big Night" event in Cincinnati.

During Friday's event, Boyle and his team also entertained guests with "UnDodgeball," a form of dodgeball that excludes dodging, and other unusual games. 

“I thought it was great that a YouTube guy could be this close to us, and a social media star could be this close to us, and it was great to be part of the event,” said John Riley, who attended with his son John Riley Jr.

"He also broke a world record today, and that was really cool, too," Riley said. "Especially the buildup to it and everything, was great."

Pastor Blake Harcup said the church wants to invest in families, encourage them and help bring them together. 

"We think we need more stuff to bring families together, and so Shayne is family fun entertainment, and so we wanted to bless our city by hosting a free event for them that they could come out and just have a great time," he said.
