Kent couple smash their way into 2020 Guinness World Records

A Kent pair dubbed the world’s most powerful couple and a sky-diving London magician have made it into this year’s Guinness World Records.

The power-breaking Pitmans – who smashed more than 500 pine boards with their bare hands in one minute between them – join a whole host of other new title holders in the 2020 edition of the book of extreme feats.

All three have previously featured on Britain’s Got Talent.

Speedy shed driver Kevin Nicks, 54, from Gloucestershire also makes it into the this year’s records, zipping along at more than 80mph in the “fastest garden shed”.

Members of the public interested in trying out some of the activities or seeing the weird and wonderful attractions can now book experiences for the first time, after organisers this year teamed up with Airbnb to offer “masterclasses” from the world record holders themselves.
