There’s nothing like the feeling of accomplishment you get from mastering a new skill, is there? Well, maybe there’s one thing—and that’s setting a new world record. We can certainly imagine that Lithuanian stunt rider Arūnas Gibieža probably felt incredible when he nailed the new record for the longest no-hands motorcycle wheelie in September, 2022.
He was participating in the Red Bull Showrun event in Vilnius, Lithuania, when he made the attempt. Although he’d had plans in the works for some time to set this record—and of course, made sure that the Guinness World Records folks were on hand to witness the attempt—it's not the easiest thing in the world to practice.
