Pakistan’s martial artist, Daniyal Mehsood breaks India's world record

Daniyal Mehsood, a martial artist from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa's South Waziristan district, has beaten India to another Guinness World Record by accomplishing 43 no-handed kips-ups in less than a minute.

With 37 no-handed kips-ups in a minute, Aman Chatterjee of India previously held the record. A student of Irfan Mehsud, a serial fitness record-breaker who has won 13 World Guinness Records from Indian sportsmen, has got his name in the Guinness World Record book for the second time.

Last July, Daniyal, a sixth-grader, established a world record by spinning 78 helicopters in one minute. The young sportsman is a member of a Pakistani martial arts club and hopes to be a world-class martial artist with numerous Guinness World Record titles.
