Vinatieri Kicks Field Goal at 11,332 Feet to Set Guinness Record
Pro Football Hall of Famer Adam Vinatieri set a Guinness World Record on September 22, 2026, by successfully kicking a field goal at an altitude of 11,332 feet (3,454 meters). The attempt took place at Jungfraujoch, known as the 'Top of Europe,' in the Swiss Alps. The event was organized by the New England Patriots to promote their upcoming international game in Munich and celebrate Vinatieri's legacy. A Guinness adjudicator certified the record, which was achieved on snow-covered ground with swirling winds.
