Austin has got one minute
to try to destroy this stairway by smashing
each of these piles of blocks in turn
he must break at least the first 5 stacks
to qualify as a new Guinness World Record Breaker

What? How? Unbelievable
the 5 stack, 17 seconds
but sadly you didn't make
the last stack
but you've got the world record
world record......
let's have a look back at that...
see how it went
that, that was pretty easy that one
yeah, one two was easy
them 3 look pretty, pretty easy
you started with little hesitation
yeah but I just wanted to concentrate on the fourth
alright, second
so you're just getting to the fourth
he actually
has, you smashed it
that's smashing
into the fifth
the fifth?
how that look?
is broken
this last one
unfortunately I didn't won the last one
the block slipped
oh yeah
I see you just trying to finish it off there
but that's not all Austin is gonna do for us tonight
is not happy with one Guinness Record
he is going to try break 2
what you gonna do for us tonight
15 years ago I did 15 blocks
but now I want do one more
which is 16 blocks
you're mad
take the floor my friend
to break his personal best
and establish a brand new Guinness World Record
Austin must withstand the force of his assistant
as much as we wait for his 16, 3 inch blocks
this is a very dangerous act
the blocks are long way over 16 stone
if he succeed he will hold the Guinness World Record for the highest tower smash
that's 16 stone on top of Austin now
Ok, hold on first. Ok?
go...go
he's ready, he's ready, he's ready
go for it now
move them off
how much longer?
an again, move it off
other 3, them 3, wooden 3
that one as well look, that one look, look that one
he's done it
you can feel it more the higher is it?
and the more they knock off
the less the weight is obviously
obviously, the more the faster they do it
the less the weight is...
at this time you're saying quick and quick
that's the
look, look, look
they were taking the time in doing it
I know cause they are not under there Austin
you don't seem too
uncomfortable there
Well I'm. All I try to see is my chi control my energy
and trying to make sure that everything is ok
the chi, the chi is good
that's right yeah
does a chi ever run out
well never
otherwise we would die
that's brilliant
well it's official
a new world record for the highest concrete tower smash
