A 23-year-old student from Changji University in China broke the world record for jumping rope in 1 minute, the official website of the Guinness Book of Records reported. He did it 388 times, that is, more than 6 jumps per second.

“When I finished, my legs were shaking and my mind was switched off,” the record holder Alapati Yimyer admitted.

In October 2024, the young man won the title of men's champion in jumping rope in three minutes at the China Open Jumping Rope Championships. The achievement inspired him, and he decided to break the world record entered in the Guinness Book of Records. But it was not easy.
