The Guinness Book of World Records recently uploaded old footage from a 1996 record for the longest handstand. It’s pretty boring video except for the strangely riveting footage of the rollerblader on the support team, practically caressing the guy as he rolls down the road. So the longest handstand? I don’t know. It needs an asterisk. It should be “Longest Handstand with Gravity Assist.” I mean, common, we’ve got standards to uphold. Waiting to hear from the Handstand Man on this one.

Hi Guys!
Yes I know about this guy. He’s pretty good but looks to me like he got a push (an assist) watch the vid very carefully at the end.
there is a much much better guy called speed racer out of Mt Hood Oregon. claims he has done 2 miles.
I am very confident I can do at least one mile. I have already done the official application with Guiness, I need somebody to help me document it (skateboarders who can video and skate fast). I am willing to pay somebody at least $20 per hour to help me document it, but it might be in AZ or CA as I cannot risk it in the rain.
