The Guinness Go-to Guy Eyes New Record in Bulgaria

Society | January 6, 2007, Saturday // 00:00

Ashrita Furman, holder of the most records in the Guinness World Records, is bracing up to add one more entry to his list of extraordinary feats. This he plans to do at Bulgaria's Black Sea coast.

Furman, known as "Mr. Versatility" by the "Guinness Book of Records," will try to make 900 forward rolls. He is set to start at midday on January 8.

If accepted by Guinness, this will be Ashrita's 137th record.

A month ago the 51-year-old health food store manager from Queens, New York, broke another record at the 2,000-year-old Aspendos Roman amphitheater.

The record was for balancing the tallest object on one's chin for a minimum of 10 seconds.
