VIENNA: Austrian stuntman Josef Tödtling has set a new Guinness World Record after pulling a car 100 meters while engulfed in flames.
The daring feat, which took place in Vienna on June 24, saw Tödtling drag the vehicle a distance of 328 feet in 56.42 seconds, making him the first person to hold the title for the fastest car pull in a full body burn.
Footage of the attempt shows Tödtling ablaze as a member of his support team ran alongside him with a fire extinguisher, prepared to intervene if necessary. By the end of the stunt, three extinguishers were used to douse the flames covering his body.
This is not Tödtling’s first fire-fueled achievement.
