10 Ways to Have Fun with a Frisbee

It's an aerodynamic wonder, an international sporting phenomenon -- and one heck of a dog toy. It's the flying disk, of course, and your family's ticket to high-flying fun.

Flying disks are capable of traveling astonishing distances, but they've got nothing on the Aerobie ring, the current long-flying champ. Below are a few notable records for both.

Farthest Frisbee toss by a nonhuman:
32 feet, by Alex, a sea lion, in 1996 at the St. Louis Zoo

Farthest Frisbee© toss by a kid age 12 or younger:
403.7 feet, by 12-year-old Mary Uhlarik in 1992 (12-year-old boys still have 43 feet to go before taking away her record)

Farthest flying disk toss:
820 feet, by Christian Sandstrom in 2002

Farthest Aerobie toss:
1,257 feet, by Scott Zimmerman in 1986
