0:00:07 > 0:00:10Hello and welcome to Officially Amazing Extra

0:00:10 > 0:00:13where I put the best bits from yesterday's show

0:00:13 > 0:00:16with some awesome unseen footage and hand it over to you.

0:00:16 > 0:00:18A bit like a present.

0:00:18 > 0:00:20What is this? This is a disgrace.

0:00:20 > 0:00:22Right. I'm going to have to go sort this out.

0:00:22 > 0:00:25You check out what's coming up.

0:00:25 > 0:00:30Yesterday, we saw some absolutely awesome world record attempts.

0:00:30 > 0:00:35In Texas, Al witnessed Jalyssa achieve a flipping incredible record

0:00:35 > 0:00:37for the most consecutive back flips.

0:00:37 > 0:00:42And Haruka was in Japan where Yoneyama Yuichi folded like fury

0:00:42 > 0:00:45in an attempt to make the most origami paper cranes

0:00:45 > 0:00:49in five minutes. This morning, we've got some super exclusive

0:00:49 > 0:00:51extra stuff for you,

0:00:51 > 0:00:55including an unseen record attempt from break dancer Roxy...

0:00:55 > 0:00:59and I try to master the high-speed world of sport stacking.

0:00:59 > 0:01:02First, though, here's a little extra something...

0:01:07 > 0:01:08HE SCREAMS

0:01:08 > 0:01:10SHE CHUCKLES

0:01:10 > 0:01:12Hello and welcome to Edinburgh

0:01:12 > 0:01:16where I'll be tripping the light fantastic for a dance record.

0:01:20 > 0:01:23Yep, I've been known as a bit of a mover and a groover in my time.

0:01:23 > 0:01:26'And while I look the part and certainly have

0:01:26 > 0:01:29'the skills to pay the bills... Oh, yeah!'

0:01:29 > 0:01:30It takes two to tango.

0:01:32 > 0:01:35I think it's time to meet my dance partner. Roxy?

0:01:37 > 0:01:41Well, she clearly didn't get my email about the dress code.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43Introducing Roxy Milliner.

0:01:43 > 0:01:45A former world trampolining champion,

0:01:45 > 0:01:49she's now a professional break dancer and travels the globe

0:01:49 > 0:01:51showing off her amazing skills.

0:01:51 > 0:01:54Since she's more street than Strictly, I'd better ditch the tux.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56Roxy, I'll catch you outside...

0:01:56 > 0:01:58when you've finished showing off.

0:01:59 > 0:02:00Fierce!

0:02:00 > 0:02:02It looks really cool to watch.

0:02:02 > 0:02:04Is it the coolest dance form?

0:02:04 > 0:02:08- Yes. Definitely.- What's the most difficult trick that you can do?

0:02:08 > 0:02:11Most probably a head spin. It took the longest to learn,

0:02:11 > 0:02:13but now it's the easiest because I practise it a lot.

0:02:13 > 0:02:15The head spin is everything to do with the record

0:02:15 > 0:02:18- that you're going to be attempting today.- Yeah.

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Today, Roxy is after...

0:02:21 > 0:02:24..the record for which is currently 91.

0:02:24 > 0:02:27Yep, you heard. 91!

0:02:27 > 0:02:30Whilst Roxy gets her head round this record attempt,

0:02:30 > 0:02:33why don't we check out the rules for most head spins in a minute?

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Whee!

0:02:36 > 0:02:40Clearly, I'm not going to try it and you shouldn't either.

0:02:40 > 0:02:42Please leave head spinning to the professionals

0:02:42 > 0:02:43and look at the rules instead.

0:02:43 > 0:02:47A hat may be worn, but no additional head padding is allowed.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50Hands may be used to propel the challenger through the spin,

0:02:50 > 0:02:53but only head and hands can touch the ground.

0:02:53 > 0:02:57And each 360 degree rotation counts as one spin.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02Well, it's about record time.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05Crowd, are you ready to cheer her on?

0:03:05 > 0:03:07The crowd are ready.

0:03:07 > 0:03:08Roxy looks ready.

0:03:08 > 0:03:11- Her knuckles sound ready... - CRACKING

0:03:11 > 0:03:13Now she just needs a regulation hat.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16That one will do just fine. Here we go.

0:03:16 > 0:03:20We begin as soon as Roxy starts spinning.

0:03:20 > 0:03:21And she's off.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25This one's all about speed and balance.

0:03:25 > 0:03:29She needs roughly three spins every two seconds to break the record.

0:03:31 > 0:03:33That's incredible. You can feel the wind.

0:03:35 > 0:03:3891 spins to beat, remember.

0:03:40 > 0:03:42And she's looking fast there.

0:03:42 > 0:03:4430 seconds. Halfway point.

0:03:44 > 0:03:46Keep your head, Roxy.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49With each spin, she gets dizzier,

0:03:49 > 0:03:52so balancing gets much, much harder.

0:03:52 > 0:03:54Ten seconds to go. Nine.

0:03:54 > 0:03:55Eight. Seven.

0:03:55 > 0:03:57Six. Five.

0:03:57 > 0:03:59Four. Three.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Two. One.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03Stop.

0:04:03 > 0:04:04CHEERING

0:04:04 > 0:04:08Roxy, if you can, do you want to make your way over here?

0:04:08 > 0:04:09Do you want to take my hand?

0:04:09 > 0:04:13Do you need me to spin you the other way and put you right?

0:04:13 > 0:04:16- I'm really dizzy.- Let's keep our fingers crossed for this record.

0:04:19 > 0:04:24Official adjudicator Anna is carefully verifying every spin.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30Did Roxy get more than the 91 spins she needs?

0:04:31 > 0:04:34The results are in...and...

0:04:36 > 0:04:39..she did with 101 spins!

0:04:39 > 0:04:41- It's a new Guinness world record. - Wow.

0:04:43 > 0:04:46Officially Amazing, obviously.

0:04:46 > 0:04:48Incredible!

0:04:48 > 0:04:50But she wasn't done there.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53Exclusively, for Officially Amazing Extra,

0:04:53 > 0:04:57here's another resplendent Roxy record attempt.

0:04:57 > 0:05:01Roxy wants to go again with the most consecutive head spins.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04For this record, once Roxy has started her spin

0:05:04 > 0:05:07she can't use her hands again. It's all on her head.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10The attempt starts when her hands leave the floor

0:05:10 > 0:05:15and she needs at least 25 spins to set a new Guinness world record.

0:05:15 > 0:05:16Are you ready again, guys?

0:05:16 > 0:05:18CHEERING

0:05:18 > 0:05:21Excellent. Well, let's have more of the same, please, Roxy.

0:05:21 > 0:05:22Break a record.

0:05:22 > 0:05:27Roxy needs to gain as much momentum as possible for her one big spin.

0:05:29 > 0:05:32And her hands have left the ground, she's off!

0:05:32 > 0:05:36We haven't sped this up, you know. She really IS going that fast.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40How many spins can she get?

0:05:40 > 0:05:42Unbelievable balance!

0:05:42 > 0:05:44She's slowing down.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47What a finish!

0:05:47 > 0:05:49Incredible!

0:05:50 > 0:05:52Come over here. We're over here.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55So, Roxy, that looked great from where we were standing.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57- How did it feel to you? - I don't know if I broke the record.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59- Really?- Yeah.- It looked amazing, though.

0:05:59 > 0:06:02That looked so good. It's definitely more than I could do,

0:06:02 > 0:06:05not least because my quiff would prevent me.

0:06:07 > 0:06:11Once again, official adjudicator Anna checks the footage back.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14Has Roxy spun her way into the record books

0:06:14 > 0:06:16for the second time today?

0:06:16 > 0:06:19Remember, you had to get 25 or more.

0:06:23 > 0:06:27You got 29. It's a new record.

0:06:27 > 0:06:28It's Officially Amazing.

0:06:30 > 0:06:34Well, in a break-dancing bonanza, Roxy has nabbed not one

0:06:34 > 0:06:37but two records for spinning on her head.

0:06:37 > 0:06:40That's incredible. She's a dance maestro

0:06:40 > 0:06:43and of course, Officially Amazing.

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Congratulations, Roxy,

0:06:45 > 0:06:48who's taken the art of head spinning to dizzying new heights.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50She must be very proud.

0:06:50 > 0:06:54And now for some records that are very loud!

0:07:37 > 0:07:39# It's not a good thing to do

0:07:39 > 0:07:43# But here's a fact that might make you chuckle

0:08:55 > 0:08:58In yesterday's show, I went to Butzbach in Germany

0:08:58 > 0:09:02to meet teenagers Timo and Ryan who are Guinness world record holders

0:09:02 > 0:09:04at sports stacking.

0:09:04 > 0:09:08THIS is sport stacking. They were trying to break their own record

0:09:08 > 0:09:13for fastest cycle stack which stands at a super speedy 6.53 seconds.

0:09:13 > 0:09:15They had three attempts.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17The first two didn't go well.

0:09:20 > 0:09:23Oh, nearly! OK. That's the first attempt down

0:09:23 > 0:09:25and they're going straight into the second.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30Limbering up, the sportsmen's fidget there.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32Hands, cups, mat, sweaty hands,

0:09:32 > 0:09:34trousers, cups.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37That's a mixture of superstition and rehearsing their moves.

0:09:37 > 0:09:41And sweaty hands. It has to be perfect.

0:09:41 > 0:09:42KLAXON BLARES

0:09:42 > 0:09:44Oh! And that's it for attempt two.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46It was over before it had really begun.

0:09:46 > 0:09:49But that's the fickle nature of the cycle stack.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51OK. That's two down, no record yet.

0:09:51 > 0:09:54If they're going to do it, it's got to be now.

0:09:54 > 0:09:58Final chance now. Nail it and eternal glory will be theirs.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00Mess it up, well, it doesn't bear thinking about.

0:10:00 > 0:10:033-6-3. Boom!

0:10:03 > 0:10:05Now the 6-6. Yes! Yes!

0:10:05 > 0:10:08The 1-10-1 and... Oh! Capitulation.

0:10:08 > 0:10:12Timo catching an edge again and sending everything flying.

0:10:12 > 0:10:14Look how close they were this time.

0:10:14 > 0:10:17It was the 1-10-1 that cost them the record.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19So close.

0:10:19 > 0:10:20What a shame.

0:10:20 > 0:10:23I decided this sport stacking could be something The Shires

0:10:23 > 0:10:25might be good at.

0:10:25 > 0:10:29Here's some exclusive Extra footage of me taking care of business.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31OK, fellas. You've taught me all you know.

0:10:31 > 0:10:34Now let me teach you something. This is how you do cup stacking.

0:10:34 > 0:10:39I'll be attempting the 3-3-3 stack, as demonstrated here by Ryan.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42Yeah, he's pretty quick. But watch this.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02It's too hard!

0:11:13 > 0:11:15Didn't want to do it anyway.

0:11:15 > 0:11:17Ah, there you go. Much better.

0:11:17 > 0:11:19Just goes to show, if you want something doing properly,

0:11:19 > 0:11:21do it yourself.

0:11:21 > 0:11:23Oh. By the way, it's socks for Al's birthday.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26Whilst I pop these off to the States, why don't you check out

0:11:26 > 0:11:28what's coming up in this afternoon's show?

0:11:28 > 0:11:30SHEEP BAAS

0:11:40 > 0:11:43Behold, Hercules.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47This huge Ukrainian spends his life doing dangerous

0:11:47 > 0:11:50and unwise things like this...

0:11:50 > 0:11:53and this...

0:11:53 > 0:11:56but today he's going to be attempting the record

0:11:56 > 0:11:59for the greatest combined weight juggled.

0:11:59 > 0:12:00You can use anything you like,

0:12:00 > 0:12:02but Hercules has gone for

0:12:02 > 0:12:05a particularly TYRE-ing juggling option.

0:12:05 > 0:12:06Let's meet him.

0:12:07 > 0:12:10- Hello, Hercules.- Hello, Ben.

0:12:10 > 0:12:14- Now, get down from there. This is ridiculous.- OK.

0:12:14 > 0:12:18- Why did you become a strongman? - My father was a strongman.

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Wow. So it's in your blood, it's in your genes.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23In terms of the record, are you feeling confident?

0:12:23 > 0:12:26I think, yes, I can do it.

0:12:27 > 0:12:30OK. So, Hercules has gone off to prepare for his challenge.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33Will he do it? We'll find out soon.

0:12:33 > 0:12:36Now, I'm joined by two clowns who are preparing for a classic

0:12:36 > 0:12:37slapstick routine.

0:12:37 > 0:12:40Basically, what happens is they look to size me up

0:12:40 > 0:12:42to throw a cream pie in my face.

0:12:42 > 0:12:46But at the last possible moment, they, of course, go for each other.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55Never ever trust clowns.

0:12:56 > 0:12:57Here are the rules.

0:12:59 > 0:13:01All three tyres must be the same weight.

0:13:01 > 0:13:03He must use a standard juggling technique.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05So, right-left, right-left.

0:13:05 > 0:13:08And he must juggle for at least 30 seconds to get the record.

0:13:08 > 0:13:11OK. It's time to get juggling.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14And not only that, but the whole circus has turned out

0:13:14 > 0:13:17to support Hercules. Guys, is he going do it?

0:13:17 > 0:13:19CHEERING

0:13:21 > 0:13:24I think that was a yes. Hercules, are you ready?

0:13:24 > 0:13:27- I'm ready.- Excellent. Then let's do this.

0:13:29 > 0:13:33Hercules starts by balancing one tyre on his head.

0:13:34 > 0:13:37Will Hercules achieve a new world record?

0:13:37 > 0:13:40Find out in this afternoon's brand-new show

0:13:40 > 0:13:43where we'll also have all these incredi-records.

0:13:43 > 0:13:45# Well, jelly babies will be jumbled

0:13:45 > 0:13:47# And the fellas will stumble

0:13:47 > 0:13:49# As they sort them against the clock

0:13:49 > 0:13:51# Who will finish first and who will be the worst

0:13:51 > 0:13:54# In this chopstick challenge for the top?

0:13:54 > 0:13:55# Will brave Hercules struggle

0:13:55 > 0:13:57# As he tries a super heavy tyre juggle?

0:13:57 > 0:13:59# This guy makes a sandwich quick

0:13:59 > 0:14:02# But the way he does it might make you feel sick

0:14:02 > 0:14:06# And Ray bravely risks his life on the end of a bungee

0:14:06 > 0:14:09# It'll be Officially Amazing. #
