This bro just reclaimed the world record for pull-ups done in a single day. You'll never guess how many he did.

Do you have a number in your mind?

If not, think of one.

How many pull-ups do you think the human body can do in a single day?

BEHOLD:

ELEVEN THOUSAND, SEVEN HUNDRED AND SEVEN.

Absolutely wild.

If you're wondering, yes, Yohan did get to take breaks. The most pull-ups anyone has ever done without a break is 1,224.

In a previous attempt, Yohan managed to do 8,707 ... but then someone else did 8,940, forcing him to fight to reclaim his crown.

On Instagram, Yohan had this to say:

When I first tried, I was so nervous that I slept lightly for about 3 hours the day before and tried to set the record. My shoulders started hurting from 2,000, my abs started cramping at 4,000, and I cried uncontrollably and thought "Why am I doing this?" hundreds of times during the challenge. I really succeeded with a record of 8,707.

That joy ended in failure less than a week later when a new Guinness record of 8,940 was registered.

My wife was due to give birth to her second child soon, so I hesitated to try again and was afraid to experience the extreme for 24 hours again.

But I felt like I would regret giving up like this for the rest of my life, and I really didn't want to finish without trying.

That's how I tried the second challenge.

Congrats, bro. Enjoy it, because there's probably someone training right now for 12,000. ๐Ÿ˜‚
