Seth Enslow, an American stunt motorcycle driver, set a new world record for longest jump in a Harley-Davidson. With an 183.7-foot jump, Enslow shattered the existing mark -- set ten years ago in Las Vegas -- by 18 feet.
What's more, news.com.au reports that Enslow had to put on his record-setting performance twice because much of the media missed the first run:
The star was scheduled to make his record jump at 9.30am (AEDT) but he took the jump at 8.45am with only a third of the press there. He broke the record with that jump but was forced to take it again when he realised the press had missed it.
While impressive, the mammoth jump is still nearly 100 feet shorter than the world record rally car jump, which was set in Long Beach on New Year's Eve. Scroll down for video of Enslow's record-breaking performance.
