On 26 December 2007, in Freeport, New York, USA, Dr. David R. Adamovich — widely known as The Great Throwdini — and his partner, Target Girl Tina Nagy, established a breathtaking new gold standard in the art of precision knife throwing. In just 60 seconds, Dr. Adamovich successfully threw 102 throwing knives (14 inches each) around Tina Nagy, setting a world record officially recognised by the World Records Authority.

The sheer speed and accuracy required to achieve this feat defy comprehension. Each knife must be thrown with precise trajectory and force, missing the human target by inches — demanding not only elite technical mastery from the thrower, but extraordinary courage and absolute trust from the partner standing at the board.

Dr. Adamovich, a former college professor turned world-renowned knife thrower, spent decades refining his craft to reach this level of performance. Known for his showmanship and precision, The Great Throwdini has become a legend in the world of professional knife artistry. Tina Nagy’s composure and trust under such extreme conditions are equally central to this record-breaking achievement.

World Records Authority extends formal congratulations to Dr. Adamovich and Ms. Nagy for their exceptional focus, dedication, and the extraordinary bond of trust that made this record possible.
