0:00:33 > 0:00:36Today, we're here in sunny California to watch these guys

0:00:36 > 0:00:38try and slam dunk their way into the record books.

0:00:38 > 0:00:40But before we get to that...

0:00:40 > 0:00:42check out what's coming up on the rest of the show.

0:00:42 > 0:00:44What do you say, one more?

0:00:44 > 0:00:48Thank you, Al. Yes, stay with us and you'll get to see some fantastic

0:00:48 > 0:00:52Guinness World Records title attempts including...

0:00:52 > 0:00:55MUSIC: Dare by Gorillaz

0:00:55 > 0:00:59Our competitive heroes go again as we ask the poetic question,

0:00:59 > 0:01:03"Are these guys able to make a dice stack stable?"

0:01:06 > 0:01:09Some of your favourite CBBC faces take it in turn to become

0:01:09 > 0:01:12the best at PEA-ing in a bucket.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15Don't worry, mums and dads, it's not as it seems.

0:01:17 > 0:01:21And this lady will try and break a record involving boomerangs.

0:01:21 > 0:01:25I can't remember exactly what it is but I'm sure it'll come back to me.

0:01:25 > 0:01:27First, though, back to Al in America.

0:01:30 > 0:01:32- Oh... - HE CHEERS

0:01:32 > 0:01:34HE SCREAMS

0:01:34 > 0:01:35SHE LAUGHS

0:01:35 > 0:01:38For years, this show has made me look goofy.

0:01:38 > 0:01:41Maybe even a little silly.

0:01:41 > 0:01:45But not today, cos today it's basketball. It's my game, baby!

0:01:45 > 0:01:46Give me that ball.

0:01:46 > 0:01:48Watch this. Come on.

0:01:50 > 0:01:54Oh, and it's Al Jackson! He is owning the court.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56What's that over there? Ha! Nothing.

0:01:56 > 0:01:58Nothing can stop the... TWANG!

0:01:58 > 0:02:01Who left a life-size cut-out of Ben on the court?

0:02:01 > 0:02:04Oh, I've been wondering where I left that.

0:02:04 > 0:02:06I give up.

0:02:06 > 0:02:09Let's just concentrate on the real reason we're here.

0:02:09 > 0:02:12This could be our coolest ever record attempt.

0:02:12 > 0:02:15Meet Acrodunk.

0:02:20 > 0:02:24Founded by former Houston Rockets NBA Basketball mascot

0:02:24 > 0:02:25Jerry L Burrell,

0:02:25 > 0:02:30these acrobatically gifted b-ballers are the dons of dunking.

0:02:31 > 0:02:33They're already multi-world-record-holders,

0:02:33 > 0:02:36travelling the globe to inspire and entertain.

0:02:40 > 0:02:44- I see Acrodunk...- Yes.- And it looks cool. And what is it?

0:02:44 > 0:02:47A combination of acrobatics and dunking.

0:02:47 > 0:02:50Hit off the trampoline, slam dunk the ball, do tumbling, flips,

0:02:50 > 0:02:53dance, all that stuff, and make a great amazing routine out of it.

0:02:53 > 0:02:56The record they're attempting today is...

0:03:00 > 0:03:03Sounds pretty tricky. That's a front flip.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06That's the pass off the backboard

0:03:06 > 0:03:09and they've got to do that at least 15 times, and then end it with

0:03:09 > 0:03:14a dunk within the 30-second time limit to set a new world record.

0:03:14 > 0:03:16And, as you can see, even just the dunking part

0:03:16 > 0:03:18of this is tricky enough.

0:03:18 > 0:03:21Timing has to be impeccable.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25If it's not right, not only will it ruin the attempt,

0:03:25 > 0:03:27but someone could get hurt.

0:03:27 > 0:03:29- Yeah?- How would you feel, like,

0:03:29 > 0:03:32- about a little shoot-out before we get started?- Why not?

0:03:32 > 0:03:33It'll be fun. Let's do it.

0:03:33 > 0:03:37- Jerry, so we can get this over with quickly, I'm going to go first.- OK.

0:03:37 > 0:03:40All right, I'll just show you how it's done, you know?

0:03:40 > 0:03:42- There we go.- Let's see what you've got.- All right.

0:03:42 > 0:03:44MUSIC: I Wish by Skee-Lo

0:03:44 > 0:03:46There we go.

0:03:46 > 0:03:47Hmm, good start, Al(!)

0:03:47 > 0:03:49Just warming up, Ben.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52Should I do it with my eyes open or closed, which one?

0:03:52 > 0:03:55- Oh, closed.- I'm going to say you do it with your eyes closed,

0:03:55 > 0:03:58- just so I can see what I'm working with.- All right.

0:03:59 > 0:04:02SCREAMING AND CHEERING

0:04:05 > 0:04:08That's an amazing shot!

0:04:10 > 0:04:14Al, I think you're a little out of your depth, aren't you?

0:04:14 > 0:04:16Oh, you're under my net!

0:04:16 > 0:04:18'Oh, man, this is bad.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20'My only way out of this is to mess with his mind.'

0:04:20 > 0:04:23Let's see what you got.

0:04:23 > 0:04:25Just don't miss, that would be really embarrassing.

0:04:25 > 0:04:28All over Europe people going to see you lose.

0:04:30 > 0:04:35'That's way off. I've gotten inside Jerry's head, psyched him out.

0:04:35 > 0:04:39'There's no way, no way on Earth, that ball's go...

0:04:39 > 0:04:43'Oh... It's going in, isn't it?'

0:04:43 > 0:04:45SCREAMING AND WHOOPING

0:04:48 > 0:04:50OK, you definitely beat me.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53- Now, let's see you guys get this record, how about that?- I like that.

0:04:53 > 0:04:55That'll put me back in a good mood.

0:04:55 > 0:04:57Let's get to the record. Here are the rules.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04Only one basketball can be used during the attempt.

0:05:04 > 0:05:08They must each do a full front flip before releasing the ball.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11The team must end the attempt with a slam dunk

0:05:11 > 0:05:13within the 30-second time limit

0:05:13 > 0:05:17and the target is 15 passes off the backboard to set a new world record.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19J-Skillz has joined me on the sideline,

0:05:19 > 0:05:21along with official adjudicator Ben.

0:05:21 > 0:05:25Three, two, one. KLAXON BUZZES

0:05:29 > 0:05:35So much to get right here. Bounce, flip, pass, land and repeat.

0:05:36 > 0:05:4015 the target, this is the first time it's ever been attempted.

0:05:41 > 0:05:45Oh, no! Only five passes before it fell apart.

0:05:45 > 0:05:48Can they even do this? So close, so close!

0:05:48 > 0:05:50What did you see went wrong with that?

0:05:50 > 0:05:52Fingertips, man. The ball came off the fingertips.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55Upside down, fingertips, it's a little difficult.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57But you know your boys. They're ready for another round, right?

0:05:57 > 0:06:00- They're always ready for another round, man, always!- All right.

0:06:00 > 0:06:02A disappointing start for the Acrodunk boys

0:06:02 > 0:06:05but they're not giving up without a fight.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07While they prepare to go again, Ben,

0:06:07 > 0:06:10do you have something equally cool we can check out?

0:06:10 > 0:06:14- Do I?- Well, do you? - Er, yeah, I think so.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18Whoo!

0:06:18 > 0:06:21HE YELPS REPEATEDLY

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Uh-oh. Ah!

0:06:23 > 0:06:24HE GROWLS

0:06:26 > 0:06:29Over the past few years on Officially Amazing

0:06:29 > 0:06:32we've seen some true feats of human skill and endurance.

0:06:34 > 0:06:37Yes, that was a man pulling a bus with his teeth.

0:06:37 > 0:06:40I'm hoping that today will be no exception, which is

0:06:40 > 0:06:43why I've come here to CBBC Live in NewcastleGateshead,

0:06:43 > 0:06:46where I'm hoping to witness what will be the thrilling highlight

0:06:46 > 0:06:50of this series of Officially Amazing, a record like no other!

0:06:50 > 0:06:52'And it is...'

0:06:54 > 0:06:59What is this? This is rubbish! Guys!

0:06:59 > 0:07:00Pathetic.

0:07:00 > 0:07:04Yeah, not exactly the challenge I'd hoped for.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06But the good news is, if you have these items

0:07:06 > 0:07:08you can play along at home.

0:07:08 > 0:07:10You just move the dried pea from the plate to any container

0:07:10 > 0:07:14you like, as long as there's a hole no more than two centimetres big

0:07:14 > 0:07:16in the top of it. Simple.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19And another simple game to play is spotting all my brilliant

0:07:19 > 0:07:23pea puns, so get counting and see if you've got them all at the end.

0:07:23 > 0:07:27Come on, Ben Shires moving peas, easy-peasy!

0:07:27 > 0:07:29Yeah? Yeah.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31But I'm not alone...

0:07:31 > 0:07:34Yes, it's CBBC challenge time...

0:07:34 > 0:07:36- Feeling good?- Nope.

0:07:36 > 0:07:39..to see if they can set a new Guinness World Records title

0:07:39 > 0:07:42of 27 peas or more moved in 30 seconds.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44Peas, jar, jar, peas, peas, jar.

0:07:44 > 0:07:47And, of course, we couldn't have a record attempt

0:07:47 > 0:07:50without our competitive legends taking part.

0:07:50 > 0:07:53They'll have their go soon enough but it's the turn of me

0:07:53 > 0:07:55and my pals in Newcastle first.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57Well, they're certainly eager.

0:07:57 > 0:07:58- Are you ready?- I'm ready.

0:07:58 > 0:08:00So eager, they've forgotten the rules.

0:08:00 > 0:08:03Got to have one hand behind your back, actually. Sorry, I forgot.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06- Do you?- Yeah. You can't be touching the straw to start off with.

0:08:06 > 0:08:10- This is hard!- And it can't just roll in, it has to be placed in.

0:08:10 > 0:08:14In a-one, two, a-one, two, three, peas!

0:08:14 > 0:08:16And we're under starters hors d'oeuvres.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18Who can get 27 peas or more?

0:08:18 > 0:08:20Nice. Slow and steady.

0:08:20 > 0:08:22That's how it works.

0:08:22 > 0:08:25Ooh, Johnny's missed picking up the pea completely.

0:08:25 > 0:08:26Well, that sucks.

0:08:26 > 0:08:29But so does having the pea and missing the target.

0:08:29 > 0:08:31There's a hole in that if you need it, you know.

0:08:31 > 0:08:34This is nice, it's a good rhythm.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36'Ow! Go, Bobby!

0:08:36 > 0:08:39'If you're trying this at home, rhythm and speed are key.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42'Check out Dumping Ground's Leanne - very impressive.

0:08:42 > 0:08:44'Kasey's looking on, mesmerised.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47'News just in - Ayshah's not going to win this race...'

0:08:47 > 0:08:50Really taking her time over every pea.

0:08:50 > 0:08:52'..leaving Ricky very little to report on.'

0:08:52 > 0:08:54Ooh, Radzi's rushing it!

0:08:56 > 0:08:59He's not placing his peas close enough to the hole

0:08:59 > 0:09:01but, still...

0:09:01 > 0:09:03He's not as bad as Naomi!

0:09:03 > 0:09:06- PEA:- I'm free!

0:09:06 > 0:09:08- You've got ten seconds left. - How'd that happen?

0:09:08 > 0:09:11Think your quiff's weighing you down, cocker!

0:09:11 > 0:09:14- Time's running out.- Stop.- Ooh!

0:09:14 > 0:09:17- How's he done, cocker? - He's got 11.- Oh!

0:09:17 > 0:09:19Hooray, you didn't do it! Well done!

0:09:19 > 0:09:24All right, let's see you do your worst. Three, two, one, go!

0:09:24 > 0:09:26Oi!

0:09:26 > 0:09:28Hey, hey, this is a new shirt, you...

0:09:28 > 0:09:29Great.

0:09:29 > 0:09:31'Think we'll call that zero.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33'Dare Devil matched my 11.'

0:09:33 > 0:09:3611 peas. I've no idea how that is

0:09:36 > 0:09:38in the league table of pea redistribution.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40'Well, Dare Devil, there were higher scores...

0:09:40 > 0:09:43- 13. 15.- Ooh, brilliant.- Cool.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45'..and lower scores.'

0:09:45 > 0:09:48You got six. HE LAUGHS

0:09:48 > 0:09:49Six.

0:09:49 > 0:09:53'But is this world record to pea or not to pea?

0:09:53 > 0:09:56'Did anyone get 27 peas or more?

0:09:57 > 0:09:58'No.

0:09:59 > 0:10:02'Ooh, it's an epic fail in NewcastleGateshead.'

0:10:02 > 0:10:04Oh, I'm so ashamed of myself.

0:10:04 > 0:10:06My mum's going to be so disappointed, that's the main thing.

0:10:06 > 0:10:09- I'm not going to be able to look her in the eye.- Cheer up, Johnny.

0:10:09 > 0:10:14It's not over yet. Can our competitive superheroes do it?

0:10:14 > 0:10:1727 the target. Off they go!

0:10:17 > 0:10:20- Go!- Come on, you can do it.

0:10:20 > 0:10:22'Oh, a strawful start for US Ray.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25'Cherry's looking impressive.

0:10:25 > 0:10:27'Steve's looking pretty quick.'

0:10:27 > 0:10:29He's a machine.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31'But Mr Cherry, he's in another league!

0:10:32 > 0:10:36'Though we have sped that up a bit, he's ra-PEA-d.

0:10:36 > 0:10:40'His technique will have Steve and US Ray pea-green with envy.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43'Can they beat the target of 27 peas?'

0:10:43 > 0:10:46Sizzle for me, Steve.

0:10:46 > 0:10:49'Pea, two, one! They can do no more.

0:10:49 > 0:10:52'Well, except watch official adjudicator Anna

0:10:52 > 0:10:54'count them and wait.'

0:10:54 > 0:10:5517.

0:10:55 > 0:10:58It's good, US Ray, but not good enough. Steve...

0:10:58 > 0:11:0019.

0:11:00 > 0:11:01'He doesn't look pleased.

0:11:03 > 0:11:05'So it's all down to Mr Cherry.

0:11:05 > 0:11:09'Can our record-breaking big shot beat the target of 27?'

0:11:09 > 0:11:11Twenty...

0:11:11 > 0:11:13nine!

0:11:13 > 0:11:16So, Cherry's done it, he's got the record!

0:11:16 > 0:11:19And he's far too delighted to high-five me.

0:11:19 > 0:11:23I'm a strong straw! Bang, pow-pow!

0:11:25 > 0:11:27He's the new cham-PEA-on.

0:11:27 > 0:11:30And that was my final pea pun, which brings the total to...

0:11:32 > 0:11:35..eight pea puns. I'm a-PEA with that.

0:11:35 > 0:11:37Right, without further ado,

0:11:37 > 0:11:39let's return to Al in America for something...

0:11:43 > 0:11:46- Ouch!- 'Part Two.'

0:11:51 > 0:11:53Welcome back to sunny California,

0:11:53 > 0:11:56where earlier we met the awe-inspiring Acrodunk.

0:11:58 > 0:12:01They're hoping to gain a new Guinness World Records title

0:12:01 > 0:12:04for the most front flips with a pass off the backboard...

0:12:04 > 0:12:08Like this...and ending with a dunk, in 30 seconds.

0:12:08 > 0:12:12Their target is 15 flips and passes within the time limit.

0:12:12 > 0:12:16Their first attempt only went to prove how tough this challenge is.

0:12:16 > 0:12:20But these boys aren't giving up without a fight.

0:12:20 > 0:12:23They're back and poised to go again.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Three, two, one.

0:12:25 > 0:12:27Focus.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29- That first one down.- That's one...

0:12:29 > 0:12:31- Beautiful.- Two, three...

0:12:31 > 0:12:33Right, there we go.

0:12:35 > 0:12:39Incredible! They've hit their rhythm and they're off to a flying start,

0:12:39 > 0:12:40literally.

0:12:43 > 0:12:44That's ten already.

0:12:44 > 0:12:48Six more and a clean dunk within the time limit and the record is theirs.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50There it goes.

0:12:53 > 0:12:55Acrodunk's in the house!

0:12:57 > 0:12:59Whoa!

0:12:59 > 0:13:01That's a world record right there!

0:13:01 > 0:13:05They look confident but only official adjudicator Ben knows the score.

0:13:05 > 0:13:08Let's find out officially how you guys did.

0:13:08 > 0:13:11So, the minimum requirement for this category was set at 15.

0:13:12 > 0:13:15With that attempt,

0:13:15 > 0:13:19- you achieved a total of 16.- Yeah!

0:13:19 > 0:13:21The boys are delighted!

0:13:21 > 0:13:23A stunning attempt and a new world record

0:13:23 > 0:13:26but how close were they to their 30-second time limit?

0:13:26 > 0:13:28So, with that attempt you were only running for 22 seconds.

0:13:28 > 0:13:31- What?!- So you do still have some more time.

0:13:31 > 0:13:33- We got eight seconds. - We're going again.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35- We'll go one more time. - We want to break it.

0:13:35 > 0:13:38All right. They want to break it. Wow!

0:13:38 > 0:13:41They have a new world record but with eight seconds of unused time,

0:13:41 > 0:13:44they want to go again in the hope of smashing it.

0:13:44 > 0:13:48All right, let's keep that engine going. I'm going to count you guys

0:13:48 > 0:13:50from three, two, one.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53Acrodunk's next attempt looked great.

0:13:54 > 0:13:57They were as fast and efficient as they could be.

0:13:57 > 0:14:02And after the final dunk they were certain they'd done enough.

0:14:02 > 0:14:03Good dunk!

0:14:03 > 0:14:05Now that's a record right there!

0:14:05 > 0:14:07But official adjudicator Ben did not

0:14:07 > 0:14:09look as happy as everyone else.

0:14:09 > 0:14:14And I confirm that a total of 21 front flips were performed.

0:14:14 > 0:14:16However, unfortunately,

0:14:16 > 0:14:19- the slam dunk wasn't completed within the 30 seconds.- Mm-hm.

0:14:19 > 0:14:24If you listen carefully, you can just hear Ben shout "Stop"...

0:14:24 > 0:14:27- Stop!- ..before the final dunk.

0:14:27 > 0:14:29Unfortunately, it doesn't stand as a new record.

0:14:29 > 0:14:30Guys, you look winded.

0:14:30 > 0:14:33Do you have energy for one more go? What do you say?

0:14:33 > 0:14:35- That's a crazy question! - All right, all right.

0:14:35 > 0:14:38They must be exhausted but these guys have real dedication

0:14:38 > 0:14:40and guts, and so they're going again.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45I'm going to count you guys in from three...

0:14:45 > 0:14:47two, one.

0:15:00 > 0:15:05Their current record is 16 and they're off to a sensational start.

0:15:07 > 0:15:09There you go!

0:15:18 > 0:15:21This is their fourth attempt today, they must be beyond dizzy!

0:15:21 > 0:15:23Focus, fellas, keep going!

0:15:23 > 0:15:26Ten seconds left and the boys keep on spinning.

0:15:26 > 0:15:27Five, four...

0:15:27 > 0:15:31Oh, they need to dunk before the 30 seconds are up.

0:15:31 > 0:15:33..three...

0:15:33 > 0:15:34two...

0:15:34 > 0:15:37- That's it!- Amazing! No mistakes in the passing

0:15:37 > 0:15:41and the guys are loving it. But was the dunk within the 30 seconds?

0:15:41 > 0:15:45And, if so, have they beaten their own recent record of 16?

0:15:45 > 0:15:48That looked unbelievable. Official adjudicator Ben, talk to me.

0:15:48 > 0:15:51So, I can confirm that a total of 20 front flips were

0:15:51 > 0:15:55made during the attempt and the time at which

0:15:55 > 0:15:57the dunk was made

0:15:57 > 0:15:58was 28 seconds.

0:15:58 > 0:16:00And there you go!

0:16:00 > 0:16:03It just goes to prove that if you work hard enough...

0:16:03 > 0:16:04Guys, congratulations.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07..and you want something bad enough, you'll get it.

0:16:07 > 0:16:09Acrodunk, you are officially amazing!

0:16:09 > 0:16:12Thank you, Al. Right, who's up for a sing-song?

0:16:12 > 0:16:17Good! Here's one of our favourite songs about records, karaoke-style,

0:16:17 > 0:16:19so you can sing along too. All together now!

0:17:48 > 0:17:50Right, whilst I give my voice a rest after all that singing,

0:17:50 > 0:17:53- here's Haruka with something... - Officially Spinny!

0:17:55 > 0:18:00Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, AAAH...!

0:18:01 > 0:18:06Today, we're in China to see an amazing world record attempt

0:18:06 > 0:18:09for the most rollerblading fluffy-hooded dancers.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12This is going to be better than amazing. This...

0:18:12 > 0:18:16PHONE RINGS Sorry. Hello? Oh, hello, Ben.

0:18:16 > 0:18:20Oh. So, it's actually about boomerangs?

0:18:20 > 0:18:25That can only mean one thing - it's Boomerang Girl!

0:18:27 > 0:18:30This is Liu Dongdong and today she's going to attempt

0:18:30 > 0:18:35the record for...

0:18:35 > 0:18:39It's complicated, but this Chinese Ben lookalike will now explain.

0:18:42 > 0:18:45I see! The target for the new record was set at seven.

0:18:46 > 0:18:48And here's Liu's first attempt.

0:18:48 > 0:18:50She got all seven up in the air,

0:18:50 > 0:18:53but failed to catch the penultimate boomerang.

0:18:53 > 0:18:56So, as you can see, it's not very easy,

0:18:56 > 0:19:01but Liu was close and on her next attempt, so impressive!

0:19:01 > 0:19:04Liu managed seven comfortably and bagged herself the record.

0:19:04 > 0:19:08But that wasn't enough for Liu and she wanted to go again.

0:19:08 > 0:19:12One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

0:19:12 > 0:19:13Eight boomerangs!

0:19:13 > 0:19:16In order to break the record she must put all eight

0:19:16 > 0:19:19in the air at the same time and then catch them.

0:19:19 > 0:19:21Three, two, one, go!

0:19:21 > 0:19:26One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

0:19:26 > 0:19:30It's a good job I'm counting, as you can hardly see them.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32Will she catch them all?

0:19:33 > 0:19:35She did!

0:19:35 > 0:19:36That's amazing!

0:19:36 > 0:19:39A new Guinness World Record achievement!

0:19:40 > 0:19:44Oh, she's off, without her certificate or medal!

0:19:44 > 0:19:47Thank goodness for her superpower that allows her to come back.

0:19:47 > 0:19:49Thanks, Haruka.

0:19:49 > 0:19:52Now, from repetitiveness we move on to competitiveness.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58Arrh!

0:19:58 > 0:19:59Hmmm!

0:19:59 > 0:20:01Hah!

0:20:01 > 0:20:02Eh, huh!

0:20:03 > 0:20:04Waaagh!

0:20:05 > 0:20:08Earlier on, we witnessed Mr Cherry claim another world record

0:20:08 > 0:20:10using peas.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12Now it's time for he, USA Ray

0:20:12 > 0:20:15and Sizzling Steve to fight it out again.

0:20:15 > 0:20:19Yes, that's right, we've flown Cherry, US Ray and Steve

0:20:19 > 0:20:24to a secret record-breaking bunker in the UK to join me, Al and Haruka

0:20:24 > 0:20:29and compete once more in a series of record attempts you can try at home.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31This can only be...

0:20:37 > 0:20:41Last time, Mr Cherry was the first to win in a chopstick jelly-eating

0:20:41 > 0:20:44competition and he bagged himself a new world record in the process.

0:20:44 > 0:20:48But how will he do in today's record attempt, and what is it?

0:20:48 > 0:20:51Aaaggh! it's Officially Competitive time

0:20:51 > 0:20:54and today's record is the succinctly titled...

0:20:58 > 0:20:59Phew!

0:20:59 > 0:21:02First, to decide the order in which our competitors would

0:21:02 > 0:21:05take on the dice-stacking record attempt,

0:21:05 > 0:21:09Al, Haruka and I competed in The Plank, a challenge in which

0:21:09 > 0:21:12we had to hold our bodies in this position for as long as possible.

0:21:12 > 0:21:17Al wimped out first, after just two minutes and two seconds. Pathetic!

0:21:17 > 0:21:19You only lasted another 28 seconds.

0:21:19 > 0:21:23- Yeah, well, I just wanted to let Haruka win.- Nice try, boys.

0:21:23 > 0:21:27I could have kept going all day, and my victory meant Mr Cherry

0:21:27 > 0:21:30got to choose if he went first, second or third in the dice-stacking

0:21:30 > 0:21:34record attempt and, wisely, he chose third, so he could

0:21:34 > 0:21:38see how many Ray and Steve stacked, and know the number he had to beat.

0:21:38 > 0:21:40But before they aim to achieve STACK-isfaction,

0:21:40 > 0:21:44we spoke to the competitors to see just how confident they were.

0:21:44 > 0:21:47How well do you know the back of your hand?

0:21:47 > 0:21:49Like the back of my hand.

0:21:49 > 0:21:52He shoots, he scores! Thanks, Steve.

0:21:52 > 0:21:56So, while Steve's training involved staring at the back of his hand,

0:21:56 > 0:21:59US Ray went for a very different approach.

0:21:59 > 0:22:02- Well, I've been working on my ninja skills.- OK.

0:22:02 > 0:22:06So, blindfolding, not a problem. Stacking dice, not a problem.

0:22:06 > 0:22:10- I'm going to use my right hand to stack, left hand to balance.- OK.

0:22:10 > 0:22:15Stack. Stack. Stack. My way, all the way to the record.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Well, then, let's do it.

0:22:17 > 0:22:20US Ray all day, stacking dice! He don't play.

0:22:20 > 0:22:24Nice rhyming, Al, but what will Mr Cherry's tactics be?

0:22:24 > 0:22:26How are you going to do it?

0:22:27 > 0:22:31Well, love, the key is to find a nook on the back of your hand,

0:22:31 > 0:22:34like that, and line the dice carefully.

0:22:34 > 0:22:36Anyway, it's more about...

0:22:36 > 0:22:39dice to meet you...!

0:22:39 > 0:22:41Quite! Let's get the rules.

0:22:41 > 0:22:45Competitors must use one hand to stack on to the other hand.

0:22:45 > 0:22:48They can't rest on the table or their leg or anything else

0:22:48 > 0:22:49for support.

0:22:49 > 0:22:53Only dice that remain stacked for a full five seconds after

0:22:53 > 0:22:56the 30 seconds' stacking time has finished will count.

0:22:56 > 0:22:59And the record to beat is 11 dice stacked.

0:22:59 > 0:23:00US Ray is up first.

0:23:00 > 0:23:04CHANTING: US Ray! US Ray! US Ray!

0:23:09 > 0:23:13Either they are seriously big dice or Ray's got tiny hands.

0:23:13 > 0:23:16Look! Sizzler's using his mind powers.

0:23:18 > 0:23:19Well done, Steve!

0:23:19 > 0:23:23Ray's got to start again. Not sure what happened there.

0:23:24 > 0:23:29Choosing his dice carefully, he's still going for the big ones.

0:23:29 > 0:23:34Nervous stacking from Ray here... What? He just stopped stacking.

0:23:34 > 0:23:38He seems happy with three, even though the record to beat is 11.

0:23:38 > 0:23:39Come on, man!

0:23:39 > 0:23:43Stacking time up and official adjudicator Anna

0:23:43 > 0:23:46counts the five seconds required for the dice to remain stacked.

0:23:46 > 0:23:50And Ray's bagged himself a solid but underwhelming three.

0:23:50 > 0:23:52Playing for the win, not the record, perhaps.

0:23:52 > 0:23:55I like that you picked a number and you stuck with it.

0:23:55 > 0:23:59It's a massive risk, but let's see if his gamble pays off.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01Sizzler's up next.

0:24:01 > 0:24:02WHOOPING

0:24:02 > 0:24:06Ever the original, the enigma that is Sizzling Steve

0:24:06 > 0:24:08has brought his own dice and his own box.

0:24:08 > 0:24:11Yes, Steve has brought his lucky dice with him that he's used in

0:24:11 > 0:24:13successful record attempts before,

0:24:13 > 0:24:17and a box to put them on so they're higher, which makes them easier

0:24:17 > 0:24:19to grab and closer to the stack!

0:24:19 > 0:24:23Official adjudicator Anna allows this little bit of tactical genius!

0:24:23 > 0:24:27Some people call him cool, I call him as cold as DICE.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30On three, two, one, go!

0:24:34 > 0:24:38Steve off to a confident start. Cherry watching intently.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40Will his tactic of waiting and seeing

0:24:40 > 0:24:43what the other two score pay off?

0:24:46 > 0:24:48Sizzler stepping up to his special box now,

0:24:48 > 0:24:50to be more level with his stack.

0:25:01 > 0:25:02Stacking time's up.

0:25:02 > 0:25:05He's got to hold that wobbly stack for five seconds.

0:25:07 > 0:25:09Ooh, late drama here,

0:25:09 > 0:25:12they fell at the last moment.

0:25:12 > 0:25:13Will that attempt count?

0:25:13 > 0:25:18Well, it certainly puts the pressure on Cherry. Remember, 11 to beat.

0:25:18 > 0:25:20Three, two, one, go!

0:25:24 > 0:25:29Speedy, confident, yet not without a trembling hand.

0:25:29 > 0:25:33That's three, so he's matched US Ray. And one more makes four.

0:25:33 > 0:25:35Can he now get more than eight?

0:25:37 > 0:25:42Going for a fifth but, oh, he's lost it! He's got to start again.

0:25:42 > 0:25:45Sizzler will be pretty happy if Cherry stops before eight.

0:25:45 > 0:25:49Cherry is back up to four and he seems happy with that.

0:25:49 > 0:25:52He must be hoping Sizzler's attempt was invalid.

0:25:54 > 0:25:56Stacking done!

0:25:56 > 0:26:01- Dice to meet you, to meet you... - ALL: DICE!

0:26:01 > 0:26:03All right!

0:26:03 > 0:26:07How does he even know that reference?

0:26:07 > 0:26:11Clearly, no-one got near the target of 11 dice,

0:26:11 > 0:26:13so there's no new record today.

0:26:13 > 0:26:15Now, it's all about national pride

0:26:15 > 0:26:17and getting a point on the board for the win.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20Steve badly wants a victory here.

0:26:20 > 0:26:23He knows Cherry's four is enough to beat Ray.

0:26:23 > 0:26:25Did Steve hold his stack for long enough?

0:26:25 > 0:26:29And what about Cherry's Union Jack tights, are they legal?

0:26:29 > 0:26:33So, in third place we have US Ray with three.

0:26:33 > 0:26:36- Yeah!- Team USA strangely celebrating last place there.

0:26:36 > 0:26:39- OK.- But today's winner is Steve with eight.

0:26:39 > 0:26:41CHEERING

0:26:41 > 0:26:43Cherry both shocked and disappointed,

0:26:43 > 0:26:46but, yes, Cherry, eight is more than four.

0:26:46 > 0:26:50The Sizzler has stacked his way to a sensational victory today,

0:26:50 > 0:26:54matched only by his ludicrously over-the-top celebration.

0:26:54 > 0:26:57And that is the most exercise he has ever done outside of

0:26:57 > 0:26:59record adjudicated conditions.

0:27:00 > 0:27:03Right, let's see what that does to the scores.

0:27:03 > 0:27:06Cherry's jelly-eating triumph last time,

0:27:06 > 0:27:09matched by Steve's dice-stacking victory today,

0:27:09 > 0:27:13sees them on a point apiece, with Team USA still to score.

0:27:13 > 0:27:16But there's plenty more competitiveness to come.

0:27:16 > 0:27:19So join us next time for more Officially Amazing World Records

0:27:19 > 0:27:21and world record attempts like these...

0:27:21 > 0:27:25Dice to meet you, to meet you... DICE!

0:27:25 > 0:27:28# Well, our jaws hit the floor as we finally saw

0:27:28 > 0:27:31# Al actually showing some skills But what he did with the ball

0:27:31 > 0:27:34# Was nothing at all compared to Acrodunk's high-flying thrills

0:27:34 > 0:27:38# Liu Dongdong did her thing and got a record with her boomerangs

0:27:38 > 0:27:40# Our competitors tried dice-stacking

0:27:40 > 0:27:42# Sizzlin' Steve sent the other two packing

0:27:42 > 0:27:46# And Cherry's precisionary power got him a new record

0:27:46 > 0:27:51# It's all officially...AMAZING! #
