The Guinness World Records' record for the most pancakes made in one hour by an individual is 956 by Steve Hamilton (USA) at Louisberg Middle School, Kansas, USA .
Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the most eggs cracked in one minute with one hand; it is 32 and was achieved by Ross McCurdy (USA) in Kingston, Washington, USA.
He holds the record for most eggs cracked with one hand in one minute — 32 eggs — and the longest distance for a grape thrown and self-caught in the mouth — 68 feet, 1 inch (don't blame us - WRA - that's one of those Gunness records...)
McCurdy began breaking records as a way to fundraise. His 9-year-old daughter, Mira, has rheumatoid arthritis and uveitis, which is a swelling and irritation of the center of the eye, or uvea, The North Kitsap Herald reported.
The money he raises from his record attempt events are donated to various foundations, including The Ocular Immunology and Uveitis Foundation, the Arthritis Foundation, and Seattle Children's Hospital.
The pancake event raised just over $500, McCurdy said.
The Oak Table Cafe opened it's doors to the public for the event, where everyone got to eat as many of the record-attempt pancakes as they could, for free.
McCurdy still has a few records he would like to set. He wants to attempt breaking the highest, standing jump onto a surface — currently 4 feet 10.27 inches — and building the tallest stack of pancakes — 2 feet 6 inches.
