Abubaker Tahiru, a 29-year-old forestry student, environmental activist from Ghana, set a new world record for hugging the most trees in one hour. Guinness World Records shared a video of his extraordinary feat on Instagram.
Tahiru set this
remarkable world record at Tuskegee National Forest, one of the four national forests in Alabama, US. To create the world record, Tahiru had to hug trees quickly, averaging one hug every three seconds. Notably, no tree could be hugged more than once to set the record.
