Zhou Qi, a 16-year-old jump rope expert from Yuyao City, Ningbo, China, has achieved a remarkable feat by breaking a Guinness World Record. He skipped rope 374 times in just one minute, surpassing the previous record of 348 skips set by Japanese jumper Daisuke Mimura, which had stood for a decade.

Interestingly, Zhou’s new record is not even his personal best. He revealed that during the online part of the middle school division of the 3rd Primary and Secondary School Students’ Rope Skipping Championship in 2022, he managed to achieve an even higher count of 398 skips in one minute.

Zhou’s impressive skills and dedication to his sport have earned him a well-deserved spot in the Guinness World Records.
