Carlton Williams had a patriotic reason for attempting to break the world record for the number of push-ups done one hour.
According to the Guinness World Records website, the 50-year-old wished to “prove for once and for all that the Welsh people are physically, socially and spiritually superior”.
Williams broke his own record (1,874) while setting a new mark of 2,220 push-ups in a single hour.
The construction worker set the record at a gym in Margaret River, Australia.
