A wheelchair user from Nevada has made world history after becoming the first person in the world to perform a double back flip whilst in a wheelchair. The nail biting stunt has been watched on the internet millions of times now by people across the world.
After practising for months on end the teenager finally succeeded having suffered many injuries and one broken wheelchair during the failed attempts along the way. The stunt was finally completed on 36th August.
‘I feel so happy to have finally done it,’ said the 18-year-old, who goes by the name of aka Wheelz. The record breaking stunt took a while to perfect.
The record breaking stunt entailed the daredevil ‘Aaron’ being propelled at high speeds from a bungee jump cord onto a waiting ramp. He was then required to use his powerful upper body strength in order to carry out the double spin before coming to a perfect landing on his wheels.
