A guinea pig has created a world record for achieving the most basketball slam dunks in 30 seconds, as confirmed by Guinness World Records.
Yes, you read that right.
Molly the guinea pig lives in Dombóvár, Hungary, with her owner Emma Müller and has managed to burrow her way into the Guinness World Records hall of fame.
Speaking to the organisation, owner Müller said that Molly has always had a passion for sport and other activity, adding: “Molly absolutely loves to play basketball”.
In a video uploaded to Instagram, Molly picks up a 4.4cm diameter ‘basketball’ before carrying over to a miniature hoop and dunking it in. Her owner then picks up the ball and puts it back at the start, encouraging Molly to do it again- which she does another four times in 30 seconds.
If you don't believe us, watch it for yourself!
According to Emma, this isn’t even the best Molly could do and claimed that she has achieved up to 8 slam dunks in thirty seconds before.
Writing on their website, Guinness wrote: “Seeing this domestic cavy running around and interacting with her mum will surely bring a smile to your face, but it's also a reminder that these animals are active and full of energy, and are not meant to live in a cage.”
Molly has now been officially inducted into the Guinness Book of World Records.
If you love whacky world records, then you’ll also love the story of Ibrahim Sadeq, who broke the Guinness World Record for stacking the most M&M’s into a tower back in April.
Although it might seem like an easy task, it’s actually a lot harder than it looks and took a number of attempts before Sadeq was able to stack a total of seven M&M’s on top of each other.
