UPI – Serial record-breaker Johnny Cruz Buckingham (aka ‘MrWorldRecords’) just added another title to his collection: fastest towed asphalt skier.
Clocked at a blistering 111.045 kilometres per hour (km/h), Buckingham reached the record speed while being pulled by a car across a flat parking lot.
“I want to inspire my child, Hurricane Thomas Buckingham, to set big goals and reach for the stars,” he told Guinness World Records. “This record is for you, Champ!”
Buckingham’s more than a dozen other Guinness World Records titles include the most fire knife spins in 30 seconds and the fastest time to travel to all seven continents.
He recently broke the records for the most fire knife spins on a balance board in one minute (104), the most catches of a medicine ball wearing boxing gloves by a pair in one minute (32), the fastest time to burst 100 balloons with the feet (19.78 seconds) and the fastest time to travel to all New York City Ferry stops (six hours, 59 minutes and 20 seconds).
