Heartbreak as man's drumkit breaks 90 hours into a world record attempt for continuous drumming
- 5 years ago
A man's attempt to set the world record for continuous drumming ended in heartbreak when his electric drum kit broke 90 hours into the week-long challenge.
Matt Pargeter, 43, was trying to smash the 133 hour record by drumming non-stop for 170 hours on a special stage set up in a shopping centre.
To satisfy the Guinness Book of Records judges, Matt was only allowed the equivalent of a five minute break for every hour already played and had a strict limit of 30 seconds rest between songs.
