Bonkers Sport - 100m hurdles wearing swim fins

Well the 2012 Olympics is almost here and the world's top athletes will be competing against each other and the record books. So we here at Newslite are celebrating in the only way we know how -- by looking at some of the weirder sporting champions.

Together with Guinness World Records, who have released the e-book 'Totally Bonkers Sporting Champions' we will count down to the London games with one quirky record holder per day.

Today meet Christopher Irmscher from Germany who in 2008 became the fastest man to complete 100 metre hurdles wearing swim fins. He finished in a impressive 14.82 seconds.
