Did I just wake up from a crazy dream or did David \u201cThe Bullet\u201d Smith really break his own Guinness World Records title for Greatest Distance Travelled as a Human Cannonball for the launch of Sea of Thieves<\/strong><\/em><\/a>?! Yesterday was such an incredible Xbox livestream event and we\u2019re so happy you viewers at home were able to tune-in!<\/p>\n

David launched 195 ft through the air out of the Xbox Pirate Blaster, a 34 ft long cannon at Raymond James Stadium, breaking his old Guinness World Records title of 193.8 ft. The flight was a wild ride for David who was in the air for about five seconds before an impact stop on the landing airbag. On the Mixer Xbox Channel<\/a>, all of the passion, comments, and use of Mixer sparks (the currency earned through viewing and streaming games) were so helpful throughout this extremely fun and interactive event.<\/p>\n
