A new era for slingshot achievements. The World Records Authority is proud to officially verify a remarkable new benchmark in the field of ballistics engineering — the Most Energetic Slingshot Shot (Verified Joules), held by Jörg Sprave.

Sprave achieved a verified kinetic energy of 135 Joules in the USA in 2024. WRA has established a new standard for slingshot performance, moving beyond raw speed to measure the total verified kinetic energy of a shot. This scientific metric provides definitive institutional clarity, ensuring all competing Davids are measured by a consistent Goliath.

Sprave’s precision is now the official standard of power. This record stands as a landmark in the scientific measurement of slingshot performance and ballistics engineering worldwide.
