  The Guinness world record for the highest bunny hop on a bicycle is 1.42 m (4 ft 8 in) and was achieved by Benito Ros (Spain) at the 2009 "bike the rock" festival, Heubach, Germany.

  Guinness World Records also recognized the world record for the most people static cycling; it is 1,093 and was achieved by Bodytech (Colombia) in an event organised by Evenpro Entretenimiento in Bogotá, Colombia.

  Krystian Herba overcame 2,754 stairs to reach the 474-meter high observatory of the 492-meter-high Shanghai World Financial Center in 1 hour, 21 minutes and 53 seconds.

  Herba beat the current Guinness world record by exactly 700 steps, ending at the tower's picturesque observation deck on the 100th floor.

  He did it without touching the ground with his feet and the bicycle didn't have a saddle for him to use to rest.

  Herba, who has climbed eighth skyscrapers since 1995, said he is motivated by human "strength and desire to be better and faster, and to overcome, not only another record, but also weaknesses."
