Saul Hafting’s 211 Rubik’s cubes on a pogo stick hits Guinness 2027 book

What happened

UPI, dated September 11, 2026, reports that Saul Hafting of Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia, age 21, is featured in the Guinness World Records 2027 book for solving 211 Rubik’s cubes while on a pogo stick. SaltWire’s local filing matches the same name and town. The mark was set in 2021, confirmed in 2022, and beat a prior record of 65. The 2027 Guinness book itself was released around September 8, 2026. HARD rule for this desk: use Saul Hafting — never invent or reprint a wrong comic name such as Jax Whitman, and never swap Annapolis Royal for another Nova Scotia town drawn in the art.

Cartoon stand-in only — never a likeness. Bright cube primaries and pogo red. White gutters. Humor packages here are odd-news receipts: who, where, how many, which book year, which wire date. Skip politics. A pogo-and-cubes world record landing in the new Guinness book is the exact shape of this beat.

Odd News stays funny because the numbers are real. Readers get Hafting, Annapolis Royal, age 21, 211 cubes, prior record 65, 2021 set / 2022 confirm, Guinness 2027 book ~Sept. 8, and UPI’s Sept. 11 stamp — not a renamed character from a mislabeled panel.

Why it matters

The strip is the Nova Scotia stand-in, the bounce-and-twist action, the 211 record board, and the open Guinness 2027 book. Color on the cubes and the confetti. White gutters. Correct the comic’s wrong name and town in the prose every time. Keep the UPI URL on the page, with SaltWire as the local corroboration for Annapolis Royal.

Conclusion

Saul Hafting, 21, of Annapolis Royal, N.S., lands in Guinness World Records 2027 for 211 Rubik’s cubes solved on a pogo stick (set 2021, confirmed 2022; prior record 65), per UPI Sept. 11 and SaltWire.
