I MADE A NEW GUINESS WORLD RECORD!!
Here guys is me executing one of my favorite submission the straight ankle lock in black belt worlds finals!! One of my favorite movies growing up was “61” with Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle (die hard Yankee fan for life ) the record before me was set by a legend and inspiration to me professor Comprido!!
In 1999 (when I was 3 years old) he set the fastest submission ever in black belt worlds finals (17 seconds). He held this record for 20 years!!!!
Last year in my worlds final I was able to finish my match in 12 seconds beating this record!
Currently in the process of getting it updated on @guinnessworldrecords website!!! It is really so amazing to be a part of history!
