Shannen Jones Uses Feet to Shoot an Arrow!
An Australian woman has left the world surprised with her perfect archery skills and aerobatics. Shannen Jones not just hit the bull's eye, but she did it with her feet while doing a perfect handstand.
According to Guinness World Records (GWR), Shannen used her feet to shoot an arrow at a distance of 18.27 m in Australia's Queensland.
She broke the Guinness World Record for the 'farthest arrow shot using feet' and surpassed the previous title-holder by ''just under 6 meters,'' as per GWR.
According to 7News, Jones (23), earned the record by submitting a video to Guinness World Records in August 2022, getting confirmation she'd been successful on January 12.
"Farthest arrow shot using feet 18.27 m (59 ft 11 in) by Shannen Jones," wrote Guinness World Records while sharing a video on Instagram. The video shows Jones performing a handstand and balancing herself before shooting an arrow at the target with her feet.
Notably, she practiced foot archery for six years before attempting for the Guinness world record.
A few days back, Ms. Jones also shared a video documenting her world record attempt. "I am officially a Guinness World Record Holder now!”@guinnessworldrecords verified my application – So, I can officially say that I am the most accurate foot archer in the world now." She also said she had been practising her entire life for her victory.
