Nigerian footballer breaks World record

Ball juggler Harrison Chinedu has broken the world record for “farthest distance walked with a ball on the head”. He set the record on Saturday March 5, 2016, by walking from the Redeemed Christian Church of God camp on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway to the National Stadium in Surulere. 

His journey took him through the central district of Lagos and eventually ended at the National stadium in Surulere, after which he was still required to run around the stadium a total of 22 laps to break and set a new record.

With his new record of 48.04km, Harrison Chinedu successfully broke the previous record of 45. 64km that was set in 2014 by Indian soldier Naib Subedar Azad Singh.
