    This was done in my classroom. I have been teaching all my year 3 pupils to do it so hopefully they will beat me.

    Hi Dan, the attempt which I think might beat Dyson is at the 6 min 40 sec mark in the video. With only a standard stopwatch, it is difficult for me to time myself to 100th of a second, so I trust GWR will conclude the duration. Thank you. Alastair.
