TIJUANA, Mexico (AP) - David Smith Sr., who already holds a world
record for the longest distance traveled by a human fired from a
cannon, added to his list of cannonball coups Saturday by shooting
across the U.S-Mexico border.

The feat was the brainchild of Venezuelan artist Javier Tellez and is
part of a series of public art projects in the two border cities.

Smith climbed into the barrel of the cannon Saturday afternoon and
flashed his U.S. passport as about 600 people applauded.
