A student of Oyemekun Grammar School Akure in Ondo State has been declared a Guinness World Record holder for having the most skips performed in thirty seconds on one foot.
The seventeen year old student known as Philip Solomon achieved this feat when he skipped 153 times on one foot in my just thirty seconds to dethrone the former record holder Rasel Islam of Bangladesh whose record record stood at 145.
With this achievement, Philip Solomon became the first Nigerian and African to achieve such feat and wrote his name on the prestigious book.
His skill speed is reportedly rated at 5.1 skips per second which is an awesome thing for any human being to do.
Philip Solomon has joined a fellow student in Akure, Gbenga Ezekiel who holds the record for the most skips on one leg in one minute in the Guinness Book of World Records.
