The highest number ever counted to is theoretically infinite. In mathematics, there is no limit to how high a number can be counted. However, in practical terms, the highest number ever counted to by a human or a computer is limited by time and resources. The largest number typically used in mathematics and science is known as Graham's number, a number so large it cannot be expressed using standard notation.

It appears there are no records of the highest number ever counted to. Because of that, it would be impossible to say what the highest number ever counted to is and any claims (see below) would be unverifiable. If you counted one integer per second every second for sixty years, you wouldn't make it to two billion, so let's say the record is less than that.

One experience:

I recently counted to "approximately" 258 quintillion googol.
