Thembisa man breaks Guinness World Record

His successful attempt to break the record was aired on television.

Zama Mofokeng, a resident of Thembisa, recently set a new Guinness World Record title for the most full-body rotations in a minute.

He did this while appearing on the television program Stumbo Record Breakers which broadcasts every Sunday at 17:30 on E.tv which until November 27.

Zama Mofokeng from Thembisa earned his fourth Guinness World Records title when he went into a backbend position and completed 19 full-body revolutions in one minute.

 

Mofokeng said he will always remember the feeling of elation and excitement.

“The event was exciting, spectacular, and delightful. I saw the fruits of my labour and it meant a lot to the team and me. I’m not sure how to describe the feeling, but it was so serene and made me feel extremely special.

The record breaker said his love for his talent and career began when he was 10.

“When I met Vusi Reshumela in 2013, he advised and inspired me to take this seriously. He was one of the key individuals who contributed to my current success.

“My family makes me happy, and I hope that one day I may repay them by being more successful.

“I truly thank God for blessing me with The Place of Hope Ministry because of the degree of support I receive from my church,” said Mofokeng.

Mofokeng advised aspiring record holders who want to compete in the Guinness World Records to put in the work and have confidence in themselves.
