Teenager sets 8-mile wheelie record (Video)

A 14-year-old boy has set a new world record by pulling an eight-mile wheelie on his bicycle.

Aaron Stannage, from Barnsley, lifted his front wheel and cycled for over an hour at a track in Leeds over the weekend.

He covered eight miles (13km) conclusively beating the previous record of just 1.5 miles and the event was attended by Guinness World Records officials.

Aaron, who started his professional stunt career at the age of three, has already featured in a number of TV shows and has a range of skills including karate, scuba diving, trampoline, horse riding and motocross.

And to think, at that age we thought we were cool if we rode our bike without holding the handlebars… to be honest we still do.
