David ‘Cannonball’ Smith Sr, is rumoured to have travelled 61 metres at the Steele County Free Fair in Owatonna, Minnesota, but the distance was never verified, and the date never specified. In Minnesota, one imagines, days can drag. Perhaps that’s why Smith Sr took to blasting himself as far away from the arid sod as he could get and encouraged his son to do the same.
