  Youngest wing-walker-world record set by Tiger Brewer
   
 CIRENCESTER, England -- Tiger Brewer, 8, flew at 100mph (160 kilometres) at 1,000 feet over Rendcomb Airfield in Gloucestershire on the wing of his grandfather Vic Norman's biplane-setting the world record for the Youngest wing-walker.

  
 Tiger, from Notting Hill, London, has grown up around wing-walkers as Mr Norman owns the SuperAeroBatics formation wing-walking team.

   The previous Guinness world record for the Youngest wing-walker was held by Guy Mason, son of Pink Floyd drummer Nick Mason, who first wing-walked in 2001 aged 11.

    Two independent witnesses who watched the flight at Rendcomb Airfield, Cirencester, in Gloucestershire. Cirencester Mayor Geoffrey Adams presented Tiger with a certificate to mark his achievement.

   Tiger comes from a family of daredevils but had to wait until he was tall enough for his feet to touch the wing. After the feat Tiger tucked into a bag of Wotsits.

   "On take-off I was scared. From one to 10 it was probably a nine, but when I was in the air it was probably a five," he said. "It felt amazing, like I was on top of the world. It was cold and windy but it can't be beat. You don't have a parachute, just a pair of goggles."

    Tiger's mum Zoe has been wing-walking from a young age and his sisters Star, 14, and five-year-old Flame were there to watch.

    Tiger's dad Colin, who has legally changed his name to Happy Birthday, said: "I wasn't scared for him physically, just emotionally. He was nervous and although he acts like a big man he is only eight. But he just kept repeating his mantra 'go away fear' and he did it. We are immensely proud of him. He wanted to do this for years but wasn't tall enough."
