Welcome to the Guinness World Records Italian Show – a weekly video series featuring the most astonishing, shocking and awe-inspiring record attempts from the recent seventh series of Italy’s Lo Show Dei Record.
 
In episode seven American Ozell Williams (who holds the title for Most consecutive handsprings with 57) goes up against professional acrobat performer from China, Hou Kai (whose YouTube demo reel has been viewed over a million times).
 
The attempt for the Most handsprings in a confined space in a minute, saw Williams manage an impressive 49 – but he was just beaten to the title by Kai who achieved a staggering 50 backflips in 60 seconds.
 
 
All handsprings had to be performed with the correct technique, within a circle only 5 m in diameter.
