Featuring the longest paper plane flight ever and ping pong balls caught with chopsticks.

Series about the world of official record breaking. Featuring the longest paper plane flight ever, ping pong balls caught with chopsticks and dogs attempting to surf.

Ben Shires investigates the world of record breaking and record breakers. Ben Shires and Al Jackson head to Huntingdon Beach in California. Surf's up and there's a whole bunch of cuddly canines attempting to gain a new Guinness World Record for the most dogs riding on surfboards. Each surfing dog is amazing, but can they become Officially Amazing together?

Prepare to be wowed as Ben introduces us to a serial record chaser, 'Sizzlin' Steve Kish. Steve aims to break the record for the most coins stacked into a tower in 30 seconds. You can definitely try to beat this one at home.

How good are you with chopsticks? In Japan, Haruka Kuroda finds someone who can do more than simply eat with chopsticks - he catches ping pong balls with them! Haruka is impressed as he attempts the record for the most ping pong balls caught with chopsticks in one minute.

Ben is in Berlin to meet the inventors of a new sport: hocking. Sometimes also known as extreme sitting, this is a stylish way of having fun with a stool - but who would have thought you could also break a Guinness World Record with one? This really is how to be cool with a stool.

Back in America, Al visits an airfield in Sacramento, where he meets the man with the record for the furthest flight by a paper aircraft. We learn the secrets of how he made it and of how to throw a paper plane to help it fly for the incredible distance of 69.13 metres - officially amazing!
