Have you ever wondered what the record for the most presses of a spacebar on a computer keyboard is? Well, today we'll be taking a look at just that.
As crazy as it may sound, the record for the most spacebar presses on a computer keyboard stands at an astonishing 717 taps over 10 seconds! This record was achieved by Irina Kukuts from Ukraine in Vilnius, Lithuania on August 8, 2020. Irina worked hard to break her own record of 539 from February 2nd, 2020.
Spacebar pressing is considered an emerging 'sport' amongst competitive speed typers. Truly dedicated enthusiast's like Irina are using social media platforms such as YouTube and TikTok to share their passion and teach others how to increase their typing speed and tap-counts.
As you can imagine successful spacebar tapping requires constant practice and dedication - but thankfully there are tools available that can help with your training. These tools include online counter such as "TapTapTally" that offer a 'Time mode' designed specifically for helping press numbers grow rapidly in the allotted time frame. If you're looking to get yourself in the running you may want to consider giving "TapTapTally" a try!
Achieving such high numbers requires technique as well as good hardware - Irina Kukuts promotes using keyboards with responsive keys that are easy to press down quickly and consistently (also known as "an tactile keyboard"). It also serves best when broken into short bursts of tapping; she explains how she uses 'bursts 5 seconds long at 110- 120 presses per second' which gives her 180-210 strokes per round.
