Daniel was assigned as thrower and Tim as the catcher.


    "Kirk aiming for the butt, great strategy, perfect position to get my hands behind my back. We did it," Brown said.

    "I always wondered when I was born if I would do something special, and today I think I have," Cousins said laughing.

     Cousins and Brown previously set the Guinness World Record for one handed catches with 40.
