0:00:26 > 0:00:27Welcome to Officially Amazing,
0:00:27 > 0:00:32where we go bananas for monster-sized world records.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34Argh!
0:00:36 > 0:00:40Whilst me and massive monkey get to grips. Ugh!
0:00:40 > 0:00:43Why don't you check out what's coming up in today's show?
0:00:43 > 0:00:47Argh!
0:00:50 > 0:00:53There'll be no more monkeying about with Guinness World Records
0:00:53 > 0:00:55titles like these to contend with.
0:00:55 > 0:00:57Anyone got a giant banana?
0:00:59 > 0:01:04Stand by for some side-flipping, somersaulting, adrenaline pumping...
0:01:04 > 0:01:06Am I making this sound cool enough?
0:01:06 > 0:01:09Because these free running dudes might just out-cool even me.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13Remember this flabbergasting Fido?
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Yes, that is a dog riding a scooter.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Well, he's back!
0:01:17 > 0:01:20Warning, your eyes may momentarily pop out
0:01:20 > 0:01:22when they see what he's doing today.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26And our competitors face their toughest challenge yet,
0:01:26 > 0:01:30as they hop to it in another electrifying showdown.
0:01:30 > 0:01:34Now, if the gorilla would just put me down,
0:01:34 > 0:01:38I've got a quick costume change to make for something...
0:01:40 > 0:01:41Oh!
0:01:42 > 0:01:44Argh!
0:01:44 > 0:01:50I've donned a fetching outfit and come to tumbling Tunbridge Wells
0:01:50 > 0:01:52to meet these guys.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55This is free running, a form of urban acrobatics.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58It combines gymnastic skills with movement,
0:01:58 > 0:02:01with a big helping of awesome thrown in.
0:02:01 > 0:02:02Later on, Pip Andersen
0:02:02 > 0:02:04will be trying to leap
0:02:04 > 0:02:05into the record books.
0:02:05 > 0:02:06Not only that.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08He's in the latest Star Wars movie.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11And I'm determined to get some exclusive news!
0:02:11 > 0:02:14But first, let's meet another free running record-chaser,
0:02:14 > 0:02:17Toby Segar.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Well, where's Toby? He said he was going to be here
0:02:19 > 0:02:21and I'm not wearing a watch, but I mean...
0:02:21 > 0:02:22What?
0:02:22 > 0:02:25Oh, always with the stylish entrance, you free runners,
0:02:25 > 0:02:27- aren't you?- Absolutely. - That was quite impressive.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30- What record are you doing?- I'm doing the longest double kong.
0:02:30 > 0:02:32Yes, Toby is going to attempt the world record for -
0:02:34 > 0:02:35Or -
0:02:37 > 0:02:39..as us hipsters call it.
0:02:39 > 0:02:43Step forward Mini Kong to show us what a double kong is all about.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Ooh, he's lost a foot!
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Jump, place your hands on the first vault,
0:02:47 > 0:02:48spring over it,
0:02:48 > 0:02:50hands down on the second vault,
0:02:50 > 0:02:52over and land on your feet on the other side.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55I think a double kong might be a bit advanced for me.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58But can you teach me how to do a single kong?
0:02:58 > 0:03:02Absolutely, yeah. You're going to take off two feet at the same time.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04Place both hands and your knees will come through.
0:03:04 > 0:03:05But this is basically what it looks.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09AL: Yeah, looks pretty easy.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12With those muscles, you've got this one nailed, Ben.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19Well, that was everything I hoped it would be.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21- Did I do it?- No.
0:03:21 > 0:03:22All wrong and no kong!
0:03:22 > 0:03:24You've made a complete...
0:03:24 > 0:03:26spectacle of yourself.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29Ah, well, that's enough of that. Here's the rules.
0:03:29 > 0:03:33For the longest double kong, the participant must vault between...
0:03:34 > 0:03:35..and only the hands
0:03:35 > 0:03:37can touch the vault throughout.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40Official adjudicator Liz is measuring up.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42The record distance to beat is -
0:03:44 > 0:03:46And Toby's first attempt will be at -
0:03:48 > 0:03:51A whopping 85cm longer than the current record.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53He's not hanging about.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55You don't seem fazed by that.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58It should be OK. I'll just run and see what happens, you know.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01Excellent! Often the most simplistic approaches are the best.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03Good luck, Toby. I'm going to leave you to it.
0:04:03 > 0:04:06I think we're going to retire to a safe distance over here.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08SHOUTS OF ENCOURAGEMENT
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Right, this is it. Here comes Toby.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13This, to obliterate the world record.
0:04:13 > 0:04:14Can he do it?
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Look at Toby fly!
0:04:17 > 0:04:20Phenomenal skills.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22But he has to clear the second vault.
0:04:23 > 0:04:24Yes! It looks like
0:04:24 > 0:04:25a valid jump from here.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28But I'm not an official adjudicator, sadly.
0:04:28 > 0:04:30Liz, how did the motor do?
0:04:30 > 0:04:33Well, the current record to beat was 2.35m.
0:04:33 > 0:04:37And with a successful jump of 3.20m, it's a new World Records title.
0:04:37 > 0:04:40CHEERING
0:04:40 > 0:04:41Put it there, sir.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Absolutely tremendous.
0:04:43 > 0:04:48Incredible! A new world record on the first attempt.
0:04:48 > 0:04:49So, um, that was quick.
0:04:49 > 0:04:51What's next, Toby?
0:04:51 > 0:04:53- You're going to want another go at this, right?- Yeah.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55We may as well. What are we going to push it to?
0:04:55 > 0:04:57- You have an idea in mind?- Maybe four metres.
0:04:57 > 0:05:01Four metres. Go for it, Toby! Come on!
0:05:03 > 0:05:07Toby's new world record of 3.20m is only minutes old.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10And he wants to smash it with an attempt to four metres.
0:05:12 > 0:05:13Come on, Toby!
0:05:16 > 0:05:18It's another massive kong!
0:05:18 > 0:05:20He's soaring.
0:05:20 > 0:05:22But it's all about the landing.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25Ooh, it looks good!
0:05:25 > 0:05:27But remember, his feet can't touch the vault.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29The question is, did they?
0:05:29 > 0:05:32It looked fantastic. In order to be a new record,
0:05:32 > 0:05:34it had to be a valid jump. How was it, Liz?
0:05:34 > 0:05:35Well, it was a valid jump.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38And you have just smashed your own current record with four metres.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41- Congratulations!- Look at that! - CHEERING
0:05:41 > 0:05:43It's a double, double kong
0:05:43 > 0:05:44world record.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47Officially amazing, undoubtedly.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50Do you want, dare I ask, another go?
0:05:50 > 0:05:53- We'll try and push it a bit, yeah. - Yes! He's doing it!
0:05:54 > 0:05:58Toby wants to smash a record that he's already beaten twice
0:05:58 > 0:05:59and double it.
0:05:59 > 0:06:03This morning, the record was 2.35m.
0:06:03 > 0:06:04On this attempt,
0:06:04 > 0:06:07Toby's going for 4.70m.
0:06:07 > 0:06:10That's twice the distance of the previous world record.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14This, to double the double kong.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19But, can he nail the landing?
0:06:21 > 0:06:23So close!
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Toby finally beaten
0:06:25 > 0:06:27by the double long, double kong.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29But just look at him fly!
0:06:29 > 0:06:31Is it a bird? Is it a plane?
0:06:31 > 0:06:33Yes, it's a kong-cord!
0:06:35 > 0:06:37No? Concorde?
0:06:37 > 0:06:39It was a really fast plane.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42Anyway, Toby's still officially King Kong!
0:06:42 > 0:06:46Can Pip flip his way to a record too?
0:06:46 > 0:06:50First, we're going to journey to the bark side for...
0:06:52 > 0:06:54Oh!
0:06:54 > 0:06:56- Whoa! - SHE LAUGHS
0:06:58 > 0:06:59AL: This is Norman the wonder dog.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02Walkies? Not for this doggy dude.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Last time on Officially Amazing,
0:07:04 > 0:07:07he wowed us with his scooter skills.
0:07:07 > 0:07:08Gnarly!
0:07:08 > 0:07:09- MAN:- But whilst it was an amazing attempt,
0:07:09 > 0:07:12unfortunately it wasn't enough for a new Guinness World Records title.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16Just look at how devastated Norman was by that scooting setback.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19But he didn't roll over and admit defeat. Oh, no.
0:07:19 > 0:07:23He's back! And this time he swapped
0:07:23 > 0:07:25the scooter for a bicycle.
0:07:27 > 0:07:28DOG BARKS
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Yes, Norman can ride a bike!
0:07:32 > 0:07:36And no, this is not a guy in a dog suit riding a bike.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39This is a guy in a dog suit riding a bike.
0:07:39 > 0:07:40Much less impressive.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Today, Norman will be attempting the world record for...
0:07:47 > 0:07:49How do you think he's feeling? Let me ask him.
0:07:49 > 0:07:50Norman, how are you feeling?
0:07:50 > 0:07:52Well, I'm confident I can do it, Al.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54Best paw forward.
0:07:54 > 0:07:55He can do a lot of things,
0:07:55 > 0:07:56but he cannot talk.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Did he not just hear what I said?
0:07:58 > 0:08:01This guy is about as sharp as a bowling ball.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03How are you going to approach this record?
0:08:03 > 0:08:05We're just going to go out there and he'll try his hardest.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07- And we'll see what happens. - All right.
0:08:07 > 0:08:08- Let's get to our positions.- OK.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11'While Norman talks tactics with his human, Karen,
0:08:11 > 0:08:13'let's check out the rules.'
0:08:14 > 0:08:17Norman must cycle the full 30 metres.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20He can't be helped, but he is allowed stabilisers.
0:08:20 > 0:08:21He is only five!
0:08:21 > 0:08:24And to set a new world record, he must do it in under -
0:08:26 > 0:08:28Will we witness a historic event
0:08:28 > 0:08:30in canine cycling today?
0:08:31 > 0:08:35There it is, a dog getting on a bike.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Not something you see every day.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39Here we go, Norman.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40Three.
0:08:40 > 0:08:41Two.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43One.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45- Go!- Pedal.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47Good boy! There you go.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Good boy! Come on, Norm, you got it, you got it!
0:08:49 > 0:08:51- Good boy! Come on, Norm!- All right, we're rolling.
0:08:51 > 0:08:52Just look at him go.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55Hair cascading beautifully in the wind.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57- Come on, Norm.- Come on Norman, let's go.
0:08:57 > 0:08:59You got it! Come on, Norman!
0:08:59 > 0:09:01- Let's go, buddy.- Come on, Norm!
0:09:01 > 0:09:03- Come on, Norman!- Hurry.
0:09:03 > 0:09:05Oh, no, he stumbled.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Karen can't help him.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09Can Norman get his paw back on that pedal?
0:09:09 > 0:09:11Come on, Norm, right here. Good boy!
0:09:11 > 0:09:13He can! A dogged effort.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15Keep it up, Norm!
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Over halfway now.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19Come on, Normski, you can do it!
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Nearly there, Normatron.
0:09:21 > 0:09:22Good boy! All right!
0:09:22 > 0:09:24And he's over the line.
0:09:24 > 0:09:27You've just seen a dog cycle 30 metres.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30But was he fast and furr-ious enough
0:09:30 > 0:09:32to set a new world record?
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Two minutes and 30 seconds to beat.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Norman achieved a time of 55 seconds.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40Oh, yeah! It's a new record.
0:09:40 > 0:09:41Oh, we have a new record.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45'He smashed it! There's no-one greater than the Normanator!'
0:09:45 > 0:09:49Norman, you've showed your pedigree. You are Officially Amazing.
0:09:49 > 0:09:53Keep it together, Norman. You promised yourself you wouldn't cry.
0:09:56 > 0:09:57Huh.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Huh.
0:09:59 > 0:10:00Oh!
0:10:00 > 0:10:02HARUKA: Ciao! And welcome to Italy,
0:10:02 > 0:10:05where this man, David Martin Smith Junior,
0:10:05 > 0:10:08is about to attempt an explosive world record.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10But what do you think it will be?
0:10:18 > 0:10:19Well, Dave, The Bullet,
0:10:19 > 0:10:21is going for the -
0:10:24 > 0:10:25Yes, you're going
0:10:25 > 0:10:27to witness an actual human
0:10:27 > 0:10:30being fired out of an actual cannon.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Dave's hoping it will send him flying further
0:10:32 > 0:10:34than the current world record of -
0:10:37 > 0:10:40That's as long as six double-decker buses.
0:10:40 > 0:10:41It will be fine.
0:10:42 > 0:10:46Over to the Italian Tom Jones, for some facts.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50- IMITATING TOM JONES:- Well, Haruka, Dave's favourite Little Mix song
0:10:50 > 0:10:51is Cannonball. Hu-urgh.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54His ideal pet is a cannonball jellyfish.
0:10:54 > 0:10:55There's one.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59And he's a massive fan of comedy double act from the olden days,
0:10:59 > 0:11:01hu-urgh, Cannon and Ball.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04Those facts were 100% exclusively made up.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07Thank you, Italian Tom.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10So, as Tom stands next to the big ruler,
0:11:10 > 0:11:13Dave's climbed the cannon, ready for this death-defying feat.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15Will he break the record?
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Will he regret choosing protective pyjamas
0:11:18 > 0:11:21over a protective enormous crash mat?
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Will he survive?
0:11:23 > 0:11:24Three, two, one.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Blast off!
0:11:30 > 0:11:32And he's landed on the safety net.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35Not sure what's just blown up over there.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38Let's ignore the big ball of fire and find out
0:11:38 > 0:11:40if Dave has a new world record.
0:11:40 > 0:11:41Boom!
0:11:41 > 0:11:46Dave cannoned 59.05m,
0:11:46 > 0:11:48over two metres longer than he needed.
0:11:48 > 0:11:52That's Officially Amazing and a new world record.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Now, back to Jar Jar Binks.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58Huh! Ah!
0:11:58 > 0:12:00Er.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02Oh!
0:12:02 > 0:12:03SHE CHUCKLES
0:12:03 > 0:12:07Welcome back to tumbling Tunbridge Wells,
0:12:07 > 0:12:09where we've already witnessed free runner Toby
0:12:09 > 0:12:12double konging his way into the record books.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15And now, it's time for Pip to flip!
0:12:15 > 0:12:18He's been free running since he was 14.
0:12:18 > 0:12:21And today, he'll put those nine years of Jedi training
0:12:21 > 0:12:23to the ultimate test.
0:12:23 > 0:12:25Yes, I said Jedi.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29So, Pip, tell me, are you going to use the force
0:12:29 > 0:12:32during this world record attempt?
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Loving it! Cos Pip is going be in the new Star Wars film,
0:12:34 > 0:12:36- aren't you?- Yes, indeed, yeah.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39Ah, check this out! So, what gossip can you give us?
0:12:39 > 0:12:42- Nothing.- Come on, there must be something!
0:12:42 > 0:12:44What's it like on set? Have you held a lightsaber yet?
0:12:44 > 0:12:47- Have you stroked Chewi?- Afraid not. I can't tell you anything.
0:12:47 > 0:12:50Exactly the exclusive I was hoping for. Thank you, Pip.
0:12:50 > 0:12:54Today, Pip will be attempting the spectacular record for -
0:12:56 > 0:12:57That's like a regular somersault,
0:12:57 > 0:12:59but sideways!
0:12:59 > 0:13:02Right, Pip, best of luck and may the force be with you.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06Ready you must get, whilst rules check, we will.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08IN YODA'S VOICE: Ben, idiot you are.
0:13:09 > 0:13:10Give over!
0:13:10 > 0:13:11Pip must jump
0:13:11 > 0:13:13from behind the mark's line,
0:13:13 > 0:13:15land firmly on his feet
0:13:15 > 0:13:16and at no point can
0:13:16 > 0:13:17his hands touch the floor.
0:13:17 > 0:13:22The record to beat is an incredible 4.65m.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32It looks an incredibly long distance just to reach the mat.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34And that is the existing record.
0:13:34 > 0:13:36- Indeed, yes.- Are you feeling OK about this?
0:13:36 > 0:13:40Not overly confident, but I...I'm confident that I can make it there.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42Right then, let's do this. Go break a record, sir.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44- Nice one.- Come on, Pip!
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Pip watched as Toby smashed his record on the first attempt.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53So the pressure is really on him to perform.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55Can he do it?
0:13:58 > 0:14:01A mighty leap from Darth Pip.
0:14:01 > 0:14:02And there's the side flip.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04It's looking big.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06Can he land firmly
0:14:06 > 0:14:07on the crash Padme?
0:14:09 > 0:14:11Ooh, very nice!
0:14:12 > 0:14:14Has he done tooine it?
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Pip's certainly using the force.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18He's a real Skywalker.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Luke, no Hans, solo!
0:14:20 > 0:14:224.65m was the target.
0:14:22 > 0:14:26Let's see...3PO, if he's Obi-Wan it.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28The distance achieved was...
0:14:29 > 0:14:32..4.92m. It's a brand-new world record!
0:14:32 > 0:14:34Look at that!
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Excellent! Let's have one of those.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38- Really, really great, Pip! - Well done.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40- I mean, you must be thrilled. - I am, indeed.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43Are we feeling that there's a bit more distance to be got out of this?
0:14:43 > 0:14:45I'd like to beat five metres, yeah.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48Excellent. Well, let's do it, then. Five metres, next target.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50Just like a real Jedi,
0:14:50 > 0:14:54Pip's not content with a mere 4.92m side flip.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57Can he become the galaxy's first five-metre man?
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Looks like ewoked that one.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08And Yoda better believe he's after this five-metre mark.
0:15:08 > 0:15:12Flying again! AT-ATs the way to do it!
0:15:12 > 0:15:14Great Lando Calrissian.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18Rolling out and he's Endored up on his Chewbacca.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Last time you achieved 4.92m.
0:15:21 > 0:15:24This time you achieved...
0:15:24 > 0:15:254.93m, so it's another
0:15:25 > 0:15:27brand-new World Records title.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29Hey! Excellent!
0:15:30 > 0:15:32So, Pip glides through the air
0:15:32 > 0:15:33to break his world record
0:15:33 > 0:15:36by a massive 1cm.
0:15:36 > 0:15:38Mm. Will he ever reach five metres?
0:15:38 > 0:15:40I've got a bad feeling about this.
0:15:40 > 0:15:44- Third time, five metres?- Yeah. - Let's do this. Come on!
0:15:46 > 0:15:50Has he Alderaan out of steam or is five metres R2D2-able?
0:15:53 > 0:15:56This is it! Come on, Pip!
0:16:00 > 0:16:03He's going for this on an X-Wing and a prayer.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09Ooh! That was big!
0:16:09 > 0:16:11That was a big jump.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14Pip's showing he's no Princess Leia-bout.
0:16:14 > 0:16:15He's stormed it.
0:16:15 > 0:16:18What a trooper. A stormtrooper! Huh!
0:16:18 > 0:16:19Look at him flying high,
0:16:19 > 0:16:21like a real Jedi.
0:16:21 > 0:16:22The force is strong with this one.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Unbelie-Vader-ble.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27Final attempt. Liz, how's he done?
0:16:27 > 0:16:295.14m.
0:16:29 > 0:16:31- Oh!- A brand-new World Records title.
0:16:31 > 0:16:35- CHEERING - Excellent! Well done!
0:16:35 > 0:16:38A fabulous final flip from Pip.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40He's annihilated that five metres.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42Congratulations, Pip. Well done.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45And an equally impressive performance from me.
0:16:45 > 0:16:4820 Star Wars puns!
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Well done everyone who spotted them all.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52And may the force be with you.
0:16:52 > 0:16:56Now, let's all sing along and celebrate a true
0:16:56 > 0:16:58giant of the record breaking world.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01BEN SINGS
0:18:35 > 0:18:39Hope you managed to hit the... high notes with me. Eh!
0:18:39 > 0:18:41Now, let's all go bananas for...
0:18:47 > 0:18:48- Ha-ha-ha.- Huh.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Oh, no.
0:18:50 > 0:18:51Hm.
0:18:51 > 0:18:55Who fancies watching some Italians make a massive mess?
0:18:55 > 0:18:57Oh, and attempt a world record as well.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59You do? Great!
0:18:59 > 0:19:01Meet Andrea Frau. Big ponytail.
0:19:01 > 0:19:05And Claudio Chanarella. Tiny silly ponytail.
0:19:05 > 0:19:06They're attempting the record for -
0:19:09 > 0:19:13Which means Andrea will end up with a face full of custard and cream.
0:19:13 > 0:19:14- Isn't that right, Andrea?- Si.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16That means, yes.
0:19:16 > 0:19:20Claudio and Andrea must be three metres apart throughout the attempt.
0:19:20 > 0:19:24And only pies that hit Andrea bang splat in the face will count.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26Luxuriant ponytails optional.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28The record to beat is
0:19:28 > 0:19:30a splodging 46 custard pies.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34Ooh, squelch, right in the kisser.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37These are real, edible pies.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40Shaving foam on a plate is a whole separate custard pie category.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44True fact. Look how happy Andrea is to get custard pie,
0:19:44 > 0:19:47after custard pie in his face.
0:19:47 > 0:19:51Note to self - try and break this record with Sizzling Steve.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Another note to self - be the thrower.
0:19:55 > 0:19:56Oops, missed one.
0:19:56 > 0:19:57And another!
0:19:57 > 0:20:01This reminds me of the time I got pooed on by a giant seagull.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03And that's it.
0:20:03 > 0:20:08So, was that hard minute of toil, sweat and custard worthwhile?
0:20:08 > 0:20:10Have they done it, custard pie scientists?
0:20:10 > 0:20:12Well...sort of.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15They got 46 and equalled the record.
0:20:15 > 0:20:19So, Andrea and Claudio are Officially Amazing.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23Just in conjunction with Australians James Curley and Damian Bignall.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26Now, can we get any sillier?
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Oh, yes! It's time for...
0:20:33 > 0:20:35Haha...argh!
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Eh, whoo!
0:20:39 > 0:20:43This series, we've captured three of the greatest competitors
0:20:43 > 0:20:45the world has ever seen,
0:20:45 > 0:20:48locked them up in a bunker and pitted them against each other
0:20:48 > 0:20:53in Guinness World Records title attempts that you can try at home.
0:20:53 > 0:20:59Competing for the UK, gaze in awe at the sizzler we know as Steve.
0:20:59 > 0:21:03For Team USA, say "US hey" to US Ray.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05And not forgetting the jewel of Japan,
0:21:05 > 0:21:09fancy pants himself, Mr Cherry.
0:21:09 > 0:21:10This is...
0:21:14 > 0:21:15With six events played,
0:21:15 > 0:21:18Steve and Cherry are ahead with two wins each.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21Ray is coming in short with just one.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25Last time there was a catastrophe, as the balloon dog making
0:21:25 > 0:21:29challenge ended in all three contestants being disqualified.
0:21:29 > 0:21:30This is wrong?
0:21:30 > 0:21:32If that's wrong, I don't want to be right.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34So, we're hoping today brings back the usual dignity
0:21:34 > 0:21:39to the competition. Let's find out what they'll be attempting.
0:21:39 > 0:21:41OK, guys. Today's record is the -
0:21:45 > 0:21:46Are you ready for a bit
0:21:46 > 0:21:47of hopping action?
0:21:49 > 0:21:54Earlier on, Al, Haruka and I tested our memories in our customary fight
0:21:54 > 0:21:57to decide the order in which our record breakers would compete today.
0:21:57 > 0:22:01After studying 20 random objects on a table,
0:22:01 > 0:22:05we had to spot which five objects had been removed by our legends.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07Hourglass has gone, the slinky.
0:22:07 > 0:22:09In a shock to everyone involved,
0:22:09 > 0:22:11Al actually won...
0:22:12 > 0:22:14..by remembering three objects
0:22:14 > 0:22:17and celebrated by bouncing Ray around like a baby.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20Well, I suppose he is wearing a BabyGro.
0:22:20 > 0:22:21A-coochie, coochie, coo!
0:22:21 > 0:22:25BOTH: USA! USA! USA!
0:22:25 > 0:22:27So, Team USA got to choose whether to go first,
0:22:27 > 0:22:30second or third in the frog jumping.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33- Third.- Third, all right.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36Going last means Ray knows what he's got to beat.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38Could be a crucial advantage.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40Ben was the worst at remembering.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42So Steve will go first.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45- Ha!- How would you rate your frog jumping skills,
0:22:45 > 0:22:47on a scale of sort of one to ten?
0:22:52 > 0:22:56- Zero.- So, what, zero means complete inability?
0:22:56 > 0:22:58Yeah, can't do it.
0:22:58 > 0:22:59That's what I like to hear!
0:22:59 > 0:23:02No such problems for Team USA.
0:23:02 > 0:23:04Just show me the...the frog stance, just to see...
0:23:04 > 0:23:06let me see how you're going to approach it.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08So, it looks like it's a lot of legs, which is like,
0:23:08 > 0:23:10- that's what you do.- Ribbit.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12Do you see how focused our competitors are?
0:23:12 > 0:23:15- He's not even here, Ray left.- Ribbit.
0:23:15 > 0:23:16You know who replaced him?
0:23:16 > 0:23:18Frog jumping champion.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21I think you're forgetting a certain man from Japan.
0:23:21 > 0:23:25So, Mr Cherry, do you like and enjoy jumping like a frog?
0:23:25 > 0:23:30- TRANSLATION:- Oh, yes! I come from a long line of frogs.
0:23:30 > 0:23:31It's in me blood.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33Ribbit! Ribbit!
0:23:33 > 0:23:34Ribbit!
0:23:34 > 0:23:36Ribbit!
0:23:36 > 0:23:37Ribbit!
0:23:37 > 0:23:41Surely, if Cherry genuinely is frogspawn, that's against the rules.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43Let's have a look.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46The contestants must assume the classic frog jump position,
0:23:46 > 0:23:48they must be barefoot
0:23:48 > 0:23:51and must hold on to their big toes without letting go.
0:23:51 > 0:23:56The record to beat for frog jumping 10m is a super speedy 8.22 seconds.
0:23:56 > 0:24:00Set by the phenomenon that is record breaking record breaker,
0:24:00 > 0:24:02Ashrita Furman.
0:24:02 > 0:24:03Look at him go!
0:24:03 > 0:24:07We're going to need some next level hopping to beat that.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10Don't panic, Al, we've got next level covered.
0:24:10 > 0:24:11We've got...
0:24:11 > 0:24:12Sizzling Steve.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15It's time for you to toad the line, my boy.
0:24:15 > 0:24:16Get on your marks.
0:24:16 > 0:24:20'Steve might be ill-prepared, but he has at least washed his feet.
0:24:20 > 0:24:23'And with that Usain Bolt-like stance,
0:24:23 > 0:24:25'I have faith Steve will be lightning quick.'
0:24:25 > 0:24:28Three, two, one, hop!
0:24:29 > 0:24:31Yes! It's a confident first jump.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34Yes! Come on, Steve, forward, forward!
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Let's get a bit of a motion in the ocean.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39I'm going to try keep up with you, Steve.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Yes, yes! Hold on to those toes.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43Hold on to those toes.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45Keep it bouncing. Keep it light on your feet.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48- You can do it, you can do it!- Oh!
0:24:49 > 0:24:52What in Kermit's name was that?
0:24:52 > 0:24:55Steve travelled 25cm.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Just 9.75m short of the target.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01And look, he's so slow in the slow-mo footage,
0:25:01 > 0:25:03he's basically stopped!
0:25:03 > 0:25:06Less of a sizzle, more of a drizzle.
0:25:06 > 0:25:08- Shall we move on?- Yes, let's.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10Do your thang, Cherry-san!
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Cherry, preparing exactly how ancient samurais
0:25:14 > 0:25:17would before traditional frog jumping battles.
0:25:17 > 0:25:21ANIMAL SOUNDS
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Stirring scenes.
0:25:26 > 0:25:27Are you confident?
0:25:27 > 0:25:31- TRANSLATION:- I'll beat Steve any road, easy peasy.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34Can Cherry beat the 25cm gauntlet
0:25:34 > 0:25:36thrown down by The Sizzler?
0:25:36 > 0:25:37Or, dare we dream,
0:25:37 > 0:25:39the World Record itself?
0:25:39 > 0:25:44- Three, two, one, go! Go!- Ribbit! - LAUGHTER
0:25:49 > 0:25:53Well, I don't think any of us were expecting that!
0:25:53 > 0:25:56Disaster! Cherry's barely crossed the line
0:25:56 > 0:25:58when he topples over backwards.
0:25:58 > 0:26:02He's finished -30cm from where he started.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05We've found the Japanese Superman's kryptonite.
0:26:05 > 0:26:06His own toes!
0:26:06 > 0:26:11Calamity for the land of the rising sun, but great news for Team UK.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14Steve, you're in the lead!
0:26:14 > 0:26:18Remarkably, Sizzling Steve's in the lead with 25cm.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21Even better news for Team USA, Ben.
0:26:21 > 0:26:23This is Ray's for the taking.
0:26:23 > 0:26:28But can he do the full 10 metres in 8.22 seconds to claim the record?
0:26:28 > 0:26:31Three, two, one, go!
0:26:32 > 0:26:35'And with that, Ray's already won the competition!'
0:26:35 > 0:26:36Come on, Ray!
0:26:36 > 0:26:38'This is how you frog jump.
0:26:39 > 0:26:41'He's a hip hopping, frog rocking,
0:26:41 > 0:26:42'powerhouse of a...'
0:26:42 > 0:26:46Oh! 'Well, but who cares, we won!
0:26:46 > 0:26:49'Um, you know that's not actually an American flag, Al?
0:26:49 > 0:26:53'Hey, a flag's a flag and a win is a win, Benny Boy.'
0:26:53 > 0:26:57US Ray! US Ray! US Ray!
0:26:57 > 0:26:58USA!
0:26:58 > 0:27:01So, no-one managed the full 10 metres,
0:27:01 > 0:27:04but Team USA claim the win by being the least rubbish!
0:27:04 > 0:27:08- A hollow victory, really. - Whatever...loser!
0:27:08 > 0:27:11Let's see how that affects the scores.
0:27:11 > 0:27:12Would you look at that!
0:27:12 > 0:27:14A proud line-up of number twos.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16It's neck and neck. And neck.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19Could it be any closer? No, it couldn't!
0:27:19 > 0:27:23Make sure you return next time for more exhilarating events like these.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25# Well, we were amazed by Pip
0:27:25 > 0:27:26# And his massive side flip
0:27:26 > 0:27:29# With him the force is strong
0:27:29 > 0:27:31# But equally as stunning was Toby's free running
0:27:31 > 0:27:33# Just look at that double kong
0:27:33 > 0:27:35# We thought we'd seen it all
0:27:35 > 0:27:38# With this human cannonball
0:27:38 > 0:27:41# Then Norman the canine's incredible cycling blew our minds
0:27:41 > 0:27:46# But our competitors' frog jumping was frankly rubbish
0:27:46 > 0:27:50# It's all Officially Amazing! #
