Circus performer brothers claim second world record with epic rolla bolla skills

A pair of brothers have broken a second world record with their incredible rolla bolla skills.

Siblings Arnold and Artan Balla (both Albania), better known as the Balla Brothers, have been working as circus acrobats for around 15 years.

Putting their skills to the test, they’ve just broken the record for most consecutive push ups supporting a person on a balance board with a total of 11.

The attempt saw Arnold, 28, lie on his stomach and Artan, 22, set up the balance boards and rolla on his back.

After he got his balance, Arnold began his push ups and Artan had to adjust his position accordingly to keep from falling.

The brothers, who now live in New York, USA, also hold the record for longest duration balancing blindfolded on a rolla bolla set on a person's head with a time of 61.95 seconds.

“The secret of this one is two minds have to be in one in order for you to be successful,” Arnold said of their latest record attempt.

Artan said they decided to take on this record attempt as a way of mixing up their gym routine.

“Push ups were getting a bit too easy,” he said.

The move takes great strength and great balance, with the brothers having to perfectly sync up their skills.

Artan explained: “For me, it was a little bit hard because I had to be focussed and sharp on my moves because while he was doing push ups, the board on his back was moving all around.

“I had to be very focussed so I didn’t fall.”

He added: “Getting this title, it really feels incredible. For me, being part of Guinness World Records, it’s really amazing and we are now recognized as the best at rolla bolla.”

“It is really amazing because it completes us as performers and artists,” Arnold agreed.
