[Guinness World Records 2014 – in pictures]Woman performed 25 full-body revolutions

 

Leilani Franco (UK/Philippines) performed 25 full-body revolutions while in the chest-stand position in one minute at the Box Theatre in Soho, London, UK, on 11 March 2013. This physically demanding exploit requires the contortionist to lie with their chest against the floor and with their back arched in such a way that their legs stretch over the body and the feet touch the ground in front of the face; the legs then make a full revolution around the body before returning to the original starting position.
