# Officially amazing! #

0:00:220:00:25

Hello, I'm Ben Shires

0:00:260:00:28

and this is Officially Amazing, where our mission is to cram

0:00:280:00:31

the next 30 minutes with as many world records,

0:00:310:00:34

world record holders and world record attempts as we possibly can.

0:00:340:00:38

In this series, we search the planet for the longest...

0:00:380:00:43

scariest...

0:00:430:00:47

coolest...

0:00:470:00:49

and weirdest records imaginable.

0:00:490:00:53

Coming up in today's show - some rather splendid

0:00:530:00:56

and official Guinness World Records, including...

0:00:560:00:59

I get to play in one of the most epic football matches of all time

0:01:000:01:05

in a game hoping to contain the most participants ever.

0:01:050:01:08

Never have the words "don't try this at home"

0:01:110:01:13

been as important as they are today, as the Space Cowboy attempts

0:01:130:01:17

a chainsaw juggling record.

0:01:170:01:19

Al visits this goat, but why? Because it can ride a skateboard.

0:01:210:01:27

And we see something that is going to start

0:01:290:01:30

appearing on everyone's birthday list this year. Haruka gets

0:01:300:01:34

a go on the world's smallest manned helicopter.

0:01:340:01:37

But first, let's head to North Germany to meet a man who is

0:01:370:01:41

keen to LEAP into the record books.

0:01:410:01:43

This is gymnast and basketballer Thilo Schwarck

0:01:530:01:56

and he has combined those two skills to set the Guinness World Record

0:01:560:02:00

for the furthest basketball dunk from a trampoline,

0:02:000:02:02

which currently stands at a staggering distance of 7.75 metres.

0:02:020:02:07

Today, he is hoping to beat his own record.

0:02:100:02:13

I think it is time for me to go and say, "Guten tag, Thilo!"

0:02:130:02:17

-Guten tag, Thilo.

-Morning.

0:02:180:02:21

This is an incredibly difficult thing to do.

0:02:210:02:25

First you have to get as much height as possible on the trampoline

0:02:250:02:29

without losing your balance.

0:02:290:02:30

You then launch yourself towards the basket, ensuring you have

0:02:300:02:34

both the distance and the height needed to stay above the hoop.

0:02:340:02:37

Then you are ready for the final test - to slam dunk like a pro.

0:02:370:02:42

A slam dunk is achieved when a player jumps in the air

0:02:420:02:45

and manually powers the ball downward through the basket

0:02:450:02:47

with one or both hands over the rim.

0:02:470:02:50

Not only is Thilo highly trained,

0:02:500:02:52

but he is also in a gym with all the correct safety equipment.

0:02:520:02:56

This is not something to attempt in your back garden.

0:02:560:02:58

Get it all wrong and it could be you in the hoop and not the ball. Ouch!

0:02:580:03:03

Now this record is not all about the slam dunk.

0:03:030:03:06

You have to be pretty fit to attempt this kind of thing.

0:03:060:03:09

Let's take a look at Thilo as he gets himself warmed up.

0:03:090:03:12

Thilo is an incredible gymnast.

0:03:130:03:16

These skills will hopefully help him

0:03:160:03:18

do a slam dunk longer than the current 7.75 metre record.

0:03:180:03:22

That is like him jumping over four of me

0:03:220:03:25

lying down with my hair at full quiff.

0:03:250:03:28

Thankfully he is not using me as a crash mat though.

0:03:280:03:31

He is using crash mats.

0:03:310:03:33

Unfortunately for me, I forgot my PE kit

0:03:330:03:36

and so I had to wear the only thing they had left.

0:03:360:03:39

At least Thilo is laughing.

0:03:390:03:41

Look, Thilo, I want you to teach me

0:03:410:03:44

some moves on this to bring up my credibility. I need to look cool.

0:03:440:03:47

-Yeah, we can do that.

-OK.

0:03:470:03:49

For example, I could teach you a backflip.

0:03:490:03:51

OK, that sounds good.

0:03:510:03:52

That looks easy enough. My turn. Here we go. Up, two, three, four!

0:03:550:04:02

Almost. Almost there. This time. No, not this time. Or that one.

0:04:020:04:08

No, it is not remotely easy.

0:04:080:04:11

Enough of me being an idiot, over to the professional.

0:04:110:04:14

He has been warming up at this shorter distance

0:04:140:04:16

but now it is time to get serious.

0:04:160:04:19

Look at the concentration as he visualises the process.

0:04:190:04:22

Will Thilo be able to beat his own record

0:04:250:04:27

and slam dunk further than before? We will be back later to find out.

0:04:270:04:32

For now, it is over to the other side of the globe

0:04:330:04:36

and Al... Al! Al, you are facing the wrong way!

0:04:360:04:39

Never mind.

0:04:390:04:41

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Happie.

0:04:500:04:53

Happie is a three-year-old Nigerian dwarf cross -

0:04:530:04:57

that is a breed by the way. She is not angry.

0:04:570:05:00

But wait. Watch out, Happie!

0:05:000:05:04

Someone has left a skateboard in your way!

0:05:040:05:06

I mean, YES!

0:05:120:05:15

That's right, Happie is a skateboarding goat.

0:05:170:05:20

She entered the World Record Hall of Fame in March 2012 after

0:05:220:05:26

managing to skateboard a staggering 36 metres.

0:05:260:05:31

And here is the moment she set that Guinness World Record.

0:05:310:05:34

Of course, skateboarding is not that difficult to master.

0:05:340:05:38

# Help the aged... #

0:05:380:05:41

OK, it is.

0:05:410:05:42

I think we should find out more about this goatie phenomenon

0:05:420:05:46

on from Happie's owner... # Melody! #

0:05:460:05:50

How does a goat end up on a skateboard?

0:05:500:05:52

Just walk me through that.

0:05:520:05:54

So, one day I was riding my bike and she kept trying to jump on,

0:05:540:05:57

so I gave her a skateboard to play with and eventually,

0:05:570:05:59

she was playing around with it and she figured out how to skateboard.

0:05:590:06:02

It is one thing to get her on the skateboard

0:06:020:06:05

and get a little momentum, but how do you keep her on for so long?

0:06:050:06:08

In the beginning she would have a running head start

0:06:080:06:11

and jump on, which will give it momentum to keep going,

0:06:110:06:14

but after some more training, she figured out to take one hoof off

0:06:140:06:17

or even two hooves off to actually push a little bit,

0:06:170:06:21

-jump back on and keep going.

-So this goat understands momentum?

-Yes.

0:06:210:06:26

So, I hear you saying in your cute little British accents,

0:06:260:06:29

"What is the challenge going to be, Al?"

0:06:290:06:31

-So what IS the challenge going to be, Al?

-So cute!

0:06:310:06:35

I might not have been hot on the board before,

0:06:350:06:37

but that is not the case any more.

0:06:370:06:39

I have been practising, day and night, night and day, no sleep...

0:06:390:06:44

Well, I haven't been practising, not prac...

0:06:440:06:46

Well, I haven't done anything, but in my mind I am prepared.

0:06:460:06:50

You'd better be, Al.

0:06:500:06:51

Eight wheels, six legs, two species -

0:06:510:06:54

but there can only be one winner in this 50 metre flat race,

0:06:540:06:58

and it is probably Happie.

0:06:580:06:59

It is not a record attempt,

0:06:590:07:01

more a silly excuse to find out just how good this goat is.

0:07:010:07:05

If Happie wins, I feed her her grains.

0:07:050:07:08

When I win, I get a chocolate bar. Happie doesn't stand a chance.

0:07:080:07:12

-Delusional.

-Are you guys ready for man versus goat?

0:07:120:07:16

We have never been readier. Let the skateboarding commence.

0:07:160:07:21

And they are off.

0:07:210:07:23

One simple domesticated creature against a goat.

0:07:230:07:26

Happie is going to be hard to bleat, I mean beat.

0:07:270:07:30

What is this? Looks like Melody is encouraging Happie with snacks.

0:07:320:07:36

She is goading the goat.

0:07:360:07:38

Can't help thinking that might work with Al too.

0:07:380:07:41

Yes, he is now looking to chase down that snack for himself. Oh, dear.

0:07:410:07:45

Would you look at that. Disaster for Jackson. He has gone off road.

0:07:450:07:48

I've had it.

0:07:480:07:49

To be honest, the goat never looked in doubt.

0:07:530:07:55

-Happie has made Al sad, and won the challenge.

-OK, the goat won.

0:07:550:08:01

I still am bad at skateboarding. Happie, enjoy. Take it easy on me.

0:08:010:08:06

-To the victor goes the spoils.

-Unlucky there, Al, but take heart -

0:08:070:08:11

maybe in the future you will get to beat a worm at skiing or something.

0:08:110:08:15

Well, one thing is for sure, I will not be trying this.

0:08:150:08:18

This is Chinese stunt driver Li Yatao.

0:08:260:08:28

The question is, what Guinness World Record is he about to attempt?

0:08:310:08:35

Is it...

0:08:370:08:39

If it is the last one, I would love a double cheeseburger, fries,

0:08:470:08:51

oh, and a load of napkins because I am a surprisingly messy eater.

0:08:510:08:56

Anyway, the answer is...

0:08:560:08:59

Oh, yeah. He is going to attempt the world's biggest car loop.

0:08:590:09:03

It is 12.87 metres high, 3.68 metres wide

0:09:030:09:08

and weighs in at 33,000 kilograms. That is a whole lot of steel.

0:09:080:09:12

This stunt is terrifically dangerous.

0:09:120:09:15

The car is not going to be held on like your average rollercoaster,

0:09:150:09:18

so if Li goes to slowly, he could fall of the loop and be crushed!

0:09:180:09:23

So, no fear but he does have a sense of humour.

0:09:230:09:27

Before attempting the stunt, Li and the presenter trick

0:09:270:09:30

the crowd by pretending she is going to take part in it.

0:09:300:09:33

SCREAMING

0:09:390:09:40

And that screaming is not me, it is

0:09:400:09:42

the sound of a presenter who is no longer finding this joke funny.

0:09:420:09:46

Li, meanwhile, is having a right laugh

0:09:460:09:49

and stops only at the last possible moment.

0:09:490:09:52

Time now for the actual record attempt.

0:09:550:09:58

So while the presenter goes off to change her overalls,

0:09:580:10:00

Li cleans up the passenger seat and they are good to go.

0:10:000:10:03

It is no laughing matter now. Here he goes.

0:10:050:10:08

Remember, if he is not fast enough the car will simply not

0:10:110:10:14

get around the loop and will fall off.

0:10:140:10:17

Officially, wow! That is a loop the loop in a real car!

0:10:230:10:28

12.87 metres off the ground. Not too shabby.

0:10:280:10:33

Now from officially loopy back to officially hoopy.

0:10:360:10:41

Officially Dunked Part Two.

0:10:410:10:47

Welcome back to Germany where in just a few short moments,

0:10:490:10:53

this man, Thilo Schwarck, will be attempting to break his own

0:10:530:10:57

record for the longest slam dunk from a trampoline.

0:10:570:11:00

It currently stands at a distance of 7.75 metres

0:11:000:11:04

and the crowd could not believe their eyes.

0:11:040:11:07

But remember, this is a dangerous one.

0:11:070:11:10

If Thilo misses or lands awkwardly, he could put himself in real

0:11:100:11:13

danger of injury so, please, keep your fingers crossed at home.

0:11:130:11:17

This is a fantastically challenging thing to do

0:11:170:11:20

and requires hours of training.

0:11:200:11:22

But just before Thilo goes for his attempt,

0:11:220:11:24

he has agreed to teach me at a shorter distance.

0:11:240:11:28

And, natural born sportsman that I am,

0:11:280:11:30

I literally jumped at the chance to have a go.

0:11:300:11:32

And if necessary another go.

0:11:340:11:37

Hang on, just one more.

0:11:370:11:39

One more. Come on, Ben! I'm in it this time. Oh, hang on!

0:11:420:11:47

Come on! Enough about me.

0:11:520:11:53

Back to the record attempt.

0:11:530:11:55

An official adjudicator has set the new distance at 7.8 metres.

0:11:550:12:00

All Thilo has to do is get it in.

0:12:000:12:02

OK, this is the moment we have all been waiting for.

0:12:020:12:06

Thilo is over there. So, Thilo, in your own time,

0:12:060:12:08

if you're ready to go. We are all rooting for you.

0:12:080:12:10

Thilo can use the full length of the trampoline to get more power

0:12:100:12:14

and travel further.

0:12:140:12:15

Remember, he is trying to beat the current record

0:12:150:12:18

set at an extraordinary distance of 7.75 metres.

0:12:180:12:22

It is not going to be easy to beat.

0:12:220:12:24

Oh! Oh, he was way off there.

0:12:260:12:29

He needs to get a lot more distance

0:12:300:12:32

if he's going to break any records today.

0:12:320:12:34

He clearly needs to up his game

0:12:340:12:36

and he needs more power off that trampoline.

0:12:360:12:39

Oh! Oh, it is another fail.

0:12:450:12:50

He just didn't have enough power and he was still short of the target.

0:12:500:12:54

Maybe it is just too far.

0:12:550:12:58

Here he goes again. Come on, Thilo! We are all behind you.

0:13:050:13:10

Oh! Yes!

0:13:210:13:22

He did it!

0:13:230:13:26

Thilo flew an incredible 7.8 metres beating his previous world record

0:13:260:13:30

by just five centimetres.

0:13:300:13:33

Congratulations, Thilo.

0:13:350:13:36

You are a slam-dunking record breaker.

0:13:360:13:39

It is an official Guinness World Record, so let's take this

0:13:390:13:42

opportunity to enjoy another look at Thilo's skills in action.

0:13:420:13:45

Right. After all that bouncing about,

0:13:460:13:49

let's chill out on a beach for a bit with a load of record-breaking dogs.

0:13:490:13:53

# It's the canine calypso Put your paws in the air

0:13:550:13:59

# It's the canine calypso Doggy record breakers, yeah

0:15:260:15:31

Dogs in limos?! Whatever next.

0:15:310:15:35

This is Chayne Hultgren, also known as the Space Cowboy.

0:15:430:15:47

A unique performer who holds countless Guinness World Records,

0:15:470:15:51

mostly for really dangerous stuff.

0:15:510:15:54

So far we have seen him

0:15:540:15:55

narrowly miss a world record, not to mention my nose.

0:15:550:15:59

He has also tasted victory when he juggled

0:15:590:16:01

and ate three apples, setting a new world record in the process,

0:16:010:16:05

but today sees him take on juggling of a much more terrifying kind.

0:16:050:16:10

Did you hear the one about the sick juggler?

0:16:100:16:12

He could not stop throwing up.

0:16:120:16:15

Oh, guys! Don't... You have ruined it!

0:16:150:16:17

OK. So, I can't juggle but the Space Cowboy sure can and today,

0:16:190:16:24

he is going to be juggling with one of these.

0:16:240:16:27

Yes, it is a chainsaw. It is for cutting stuff.

0:16:270:16:30

Admittedly not normally tin cans and certainly not normally for juggling.

0:16:300:16:35

This one has been specially adapted

0:16:350:16:37

so even if you do have one at home, do not throw it about.

0:16:370:16:41

That would be stupid.

0:16:410:16:43

The Space Cowboy, however, is a professional

0:16:430:16:45

and so today, he will try to set a new Guinness World Record for the

0:16:450:16:49

most consecutive juggling catches with a chainsaw and two balls.

0:16:490:16:53

Here are the rules.

0:16:530:16:55

He must throw and catch the chain saw and two balls in turn.

0:16:550:16:59

If he drops either the chainsaw or the balls, it is game over.

0:16:590:17:03

And he needs to catch the chainsaw over 50 times to set

0:17:030:17:06

a brand-new record. Here we go.

0:17:060:17:10

-Space Cowboy, are you ready?

-I am ready.

-Then start her up. All right.

0:17:100:17:15

On my count, three, two, one. Go!

0:17:150:17:20

That is one catch, two. He is off to a strong start

0:17:210:17:25

and strength is important.

0:17:250:17:27

This challenge is not just dangerous, it is exhausting.

0:17:270:17:30

That chainsaw weighs over 2.2 kilograms.

0:17:300:17:34

There is the adjudicator, Craig, counting the catches.

0:17:360:17:40

It is incredible. Strength, stamina and concentration are key here.

0:17:410:17:47

Catching and throwing that heavy chainsaw takes much more

0:17:470:17:50

effort than those balls. Remember, the chainsaw is still running.

0:17:500:17:55

Catch the wrong end and he will not be juggling again in a hurry.

0:17:550:17:57

After three minutes of constant juggling, he is beginning to tire.

0:18:030:18:08

There is no time limit on this.

0:18:080:18:09

It is all down to how long he can keep going.

0:18:090:18:12

I am getting tired just watching it.

0:18:120:18:14

Tired arms and a lapse in concentration could lead to

0:18:140:18:16

a very nasty accident.

0:18:160:18:18

That is it! He has done all he can, but was it enough?

0:18:270:18:31

We know he juggled for over three minutes,

0:18:310:18:33

but did he manage to beat 50 catches? Let's find out.

0:18:330:18:37

Craig, did he do it?

0:18:370:18:38

Did he get 50 consecutive chainsaw catches in a row?

0:18:380:18:41

Incredibly, Chayne did 117. It is a brand-new Guinness World Record.

0:18:410:18:46

So, that is an incredible 117 consecutive juggling catches

0:18:460:18:51

with a chainsaw, making the Space Cowboy a cut above the rest

0:18:510:18:56

and officially amazing.

0:18:560:18:58

Now, here is Haruka in Japan.

0:18:580:19:00

I am here in Matsumoto City to see a unique World Record that looks

0:19:090:19:13

just like something straight out of a James Bond film.

0:19:130:19:16

This the GEN-H4, which holds the World Record for the

0:19:250:19:29

smallest manned helicopter.

0:19:290:19:31

It only weighs 70 kilograms, that is about the same size as little Ben.

0:19:360:19:41

It was invented by this man, Gen Yanagisawa, who came up with the idea

0:19:410:19:45

when he was a young boy.

0:19:450:19:47

-TRANSLATION:

-I was about five years old.

0:19:470:19:51

I wanted to make my dream of going on a magic carpet ride come true,

0:19:510:19:55

so I made this machine.

0:19:550:19:57

I started the design. It took five years to actually build it.

0:19:570:20:01

So Gen thought of a magic carpet.

0:20:010:20:04

Added rotor blades, added a steering device,

0:20:040:20:07

added a fuel system,

0:20:070:20:10

then got rid of the hopeless old rug he started with.

0:20:100:20:13

And his vision was complete!

0:20:150:20:18

It can fly at about 30 miles an hour and a single tank of fuel will

0:20:180:20:21

keep it in the air for about an hour, slightly less than a magic carpet.

0:20:210:20:26

I have been told that I can even try the helicopter myself,

0:20:260:20:29

although it is a dangerous thing to fly,

0:20:290:20:31

so first, I need a couple of lessons on this amazing flight

0:20:310:20:34

simulator at the helicopter's headquarters.

0:20:340:20:37

Oh, It is tricky! Oh, no! Ah!

0:20:390:20:43

If you do get off the ground, it is sensitive

0:20:430:20:46

-and hard to control, just like Ben Shires.

-Oi, I heard that!

0:20:460:20:51

Told you he was sensitive. Anyway, not a bad landing.

0:20:510:20:57

So I am ready for the real thing?

0:20:570:20:59

-A little bit more practice and you will be good.

-Very wise.

0:20:590:21:03

Well, here it goes. Safety helmet on.

0:21:050:21:09

Seatbelt clipped.

0:21:090:21:13

Engines started. Time to hit the skies. Just one more check.

0:21:130:21:20

Is the erm, helicopter harnessed to the ground? Yeah, that is right.

0:21:200:21:25

They're not going to let me fly for real after just half an hour

0:21:250:21:28

on a simulator. It is far too precious.

0:21:280:21:31

Even so, I am going to have a little go. Wow!

0:21:310:21:36

Although the guys next to me are kind of higher up than I am,

0:21:380:21:42

I still get the sense of flying this amazing machine.

0:21:420:21:45

It is a lot harder than you think.

0:21:460:21:50

It is so difficult to keep it straight and as soon

0:21:500:21:53

as your feet go off the ground, it is really scary but a lot of fun.

0:21:530:21:57

Of course, if you are qualified, you can take it a bit higher.

0:21:580:22:03

So you think that everybody will be flying these things in the future?

0:22:030:22:07

-TRANSLATION:

-Oh, definitely. It could be used to like a scooter.

0:22:070:22:12

I cannot wait to see if these catch on,

0:22:120:22:14

but we are all going to need a lot of practice if they do.

0:22:140:22:18

Now it is over to Ben.

0:22:180:22:20

This is the training ground of Sheffield United in South Yorkshire

0:22:280:22:32

and we are here to try and break a Guinness World Record.

0:22:320:22:35

Take your average 90-minute football match and throw it out

0:22:350:22:38

the window, because this one is going to last for 24 hours.

0:22:380:22:43

It is the record attempt for the most players in a five-a-side

0:22:430:22:46

exhibition match and even better for me, I am going to join in.

0:22:460:22:51

While they practise with the balls, I am going to lay down the rules.

0:22:520:22:56

Two teams, red and blue, must play one another for a 24-hour duration.

0:22:560:23:01

During the game, new players can be substituted onto either team.

0:23:010:23:05

Every player must remain on the pitch for at least ten minutes

0:23:050:23:08

and must touch the ball at least once. Happy with the rules, guys?

0:23:080:23:13

Good. OK. So they are about to kick off and remember,

0:23:130:23:16

they have to play for 24 hours and get more than 441 people to play.

0:23:160:23:21

And they are off. Start the clock.

0:23:230:23:25

Oh! A whizzer.

0:23:270:23:28

That is only the first substitute with just ten minutes gone

0:23:340:23:37

and a whopping 1,430 minutes remaining.

0:23:370:23:41

It can only mean one thing - a lovely sped-up montage.

0:23:410:23:45

I am not on until tomorrow, so I still have got ages to wait

0:23:460:23:49

and I have a feeling those bibs are going to get pretty

0:23:490:23:52

smelly by the end of the record attempt. Urgh!

0:23:520:23:55

-Do you think we are ever going to get a game?

-Yaarr!

0:23:550:24:01

The score is getting bigger and bigger.

0:24:010:24:03

My time to shine will come but not until the morning.

0:24:030:24:06

Meanwhile, the play continues all night long.

0:24:060:24:08

The next day arrives

0:24:170:24:19

and it will not be too long before I get on the pitch.

0:24:190:24:21

This is the point where I like to psych out my opponents

0:24:210:24:24

with my infamously terrifying warm-up manoeuvres.

0:24:240:24:27

-Oh, yeah. They look really scared, Ben.

-Yeah, thanks, Al(!)

0:24:410:24:46

Oh, what are you wearing?

0:24:460:24:47

This is the same Leeds United kit my grandad

0:24:470:24:50

wore as a professional footballer in the 1950s.

0:24:500:24:53

Remember, it is the most players playing continuously in a

0:24:530:24:56

five-a-side football exhibition match.

0:24:560:24:58

We have been going for about 18 hours and these are the scores.

0:24:580:25:01

The Blues are beating the Reds by 241 to 220, that is

0:25:010:25:05

over 460 goals in 18 hours. That is around 25 goals an hour.

0:25:050:25:11

If only all football was this exciting.

0:25:110:25:13

-I really want to get on the pitch now.

-Number seven, Ben Shires.

0:25:130:25:17

Right, looks like I am up. Here we go.

0:25:170:25:19

While I concentrate on playing for the Blue team, it is

0:25:190:25:21

-over to Al to commentate.

-Hi, folks,

0:25:210:25:24

-and welcome to this fine game of soccer.

-Football, Al!

0:25:240:25:27

-It is called football.

-Whatever. OK.

0:25:270:25:30

Let's see some of Ben's finest moves.

0:25:300:25:32

Remember, all he has to do is touch the ball once.

0:25:320:25:35

Well, we have got the Riverdance move.

0:25:370:25:39

I have never seen that outside of a theatre before.

0:25:390:25:42

I did not know that falling over was such an integral part of soccer.

0:25:450:25:48

I mean, nobody even touched you!

0:25:480:25:51

-Do you ever actually get anywhere near the ball?

-Yes! There, see that?

0:25:510:25:58

-Wow! That is incredible. You actually touched the soccer ball.

-Football!

0:25:580:26:03

I always thought it was about getting the ball in the net

0:26:030:26:06

but, in fact, I now realise it is more about dancing and falling over.

0:26:060:26:11

-Number seven, Ben Shires.

-Thanks, Al(!) I will take over from here.

0:26:110:26:15

You get back to your skateboard practice.

0:26:150:26:18

As former Premier League star Robbie Savage joins the party,

0:26:180:26:21

this incredible, gruelling attempt reaches its final stages.

0:26:210:26:25

Have enough players been substituted?

0:26:260:26:29

Have they all made the required contact with the ball?

0:26:290:26:31

Have we broken the record?

0:26:310:26:34

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:26:340:26:36

They think it is all over, it is now.

0:26:400:26:43

All that remains is to see whether we have broken the record.

0:26:430:26:46

Official adjudicator Annabel is checking over her information.

0:26:460:26:51

I am happy to announce that we do actually have a new Guinness

0:26:510:26:54

-World Record.

-That is it!

-464 participants over the last 24 hours.

0:26:540:27:01

24 hours later, it has all been worth it. It is a new World Record.

0:27:010:27:06

That is officially amazing. What an epic way to end proceedings!

0:27:060:27:11

See you next time for more officially amazing stuff like this.

0:27:110:27:16

# Well, Ben had a go with the five- a-side and he was really, really bad

0:27:160:27:21

# But they still got the record for most players one match has ever had

0:27:210:27:26

# Thilo jumped real high He's a record-breaking slam dunk guy

0:27:260:27:30

# Space Cowboy is a juggling machine

0:27:300:27:32

# The craziest record I've ever seen

0:27:320:27:34

# And Happie the goat was speedy on a skateboard!

0:27:340:27:38

# It is all officially amazing! #
