Two Men Pull Three Firetrucks and Set a World Record
Kevin Fast is no stranger to setting world records. Now, with Andrew Younghusband‘s help, the Canadian man has set 25 and his latest will be shown on TV.
Younghusband is the host of Discovery’s “Tougher Than It Looks?” and he wanted to find out just how hard it is to get Guinness’ attention, so he called up Fast. The two men partnered up to pull three firetrucks 100 feet, which would set the new record.
There was a false start thanks to a pesky firetruck break someone left on, but after one minute and twenty-one seconds, the pair completed the task and set the world record.
So was it tougher than it looks? “It’s tougher than it looks if you’re a regular person,” Younghusband explains. “But if you’re a regular person who hooks up with Kevin it’s not that tough. Lets face facts, he did 98% of the work. I was trying my damnedest but if you had eight of me it wouldn’t have happened. One of me and one of him – no sweat.”
