A 17-year-old boy from India broke a Guinness World Record for most side to side hops in 30 seconds in Dubai.
Soham Mukherjee, an 11-grader at GEMS Wellington International School, completed 110 hops in total with 9 deemed invalid according to the global authority for record breaking.
The previous record was 96 side to side hops.
Commenting on the victory, Mukherjee said, “I would have never attempted a record if I didn’t move to Dubai.”
He also revealed he will be attempting another record in aerobics, and he is confident he'll be able to break the previous title.
