Title: Guiness World Record on Pro Jumps
Post by: webmaster on October 09, 2008, 03:43:33 PM
Last week Ian and John travelled up to London to attempt to set a brand new Guiness World Record for "the longest front flip over a car on jumping stilts".

They were initially going to attempt to set a record with most backflips or running as fast as they could, but due to the size of the stage this wasn't possible :(

The lads had plenty of fun doing the show and I'll have some great pictures to share with you soon from the day.

To make the show more competitive and exciting, the lads were contesting against two  "B Bounce" members, to find out who won make sure you tune in, the show will be on Sky One and as soon as I know the dates I'll let you all know :)

Just had an update from Ian,

They went to Madrid yesterday, to attempt to break the record set by John at the GWR show

Ian broke Johns old record by about 40 cm but then John broke that again. The new record is now 4.56m

This time they flipped over a Mercedes SLK  :)

Footage coming soon.... hopefully  ;)

Ok, so i went to the cinema today to see 2012 which was a fantastic film, but when i was watching the adverts, trailers etc at the start of the film I saw the Guiness World Record 2010 Book been advertised. For a split second I saw someone jump over a car on stilts, my first reaction was it must of been either sim, pete, ian or john from the record they set a while back ago. When i got home i searched for the advert on youtube and was looking closely at the jump over the car,  it wasnt the record john and ian set, instead it was someone jumping over a merc i think it is (not so good with car models).
Im not sure if it was either of the 4 guys or someone totally different, but have a look for your self.

its at about 9-10 seconds into the video.

Awsome and all credit to Brucie

What I meant though was park two cars about 6ft apart then flip the first one land in between them and flip the second one all in one move (if you get my meaning0

Or like you say TomH999 three cars and three flips could go on for ever didn't someone do 14 flips in a row

Only one certainty is that it ain't gonna be me  :Claugh:

Clive takes a lot of care over his style and would be mortified to be "Shaggy"  :Claugh:

Think he'd rather be Fred  :Cbiggrin:

So that leaves you and Naz with the choice between Daphne and Thelma (Don't fight over it girls  :Claugh:) I always liked Thelma (Air heads like Daphne  are dangerous  :Cbiggrin: )

Now who can we cast as Shaggy (Long hair, eats constantly, vaguely annoying Hmmm shame Toddy cut his hair really  :Claugh: )
