Filipino breaks Guinness’ record for longest dribble
He dribbled for 45 hours, 10 minutes and 22 seconds. Nonstop.
Erwin Evangelista, of Quezon City, took home the Guiness’ record for the “World’s Longest Dribble”.
The previous record was 26 hours and 40 minutes by African-American Joseph Odhiambo, who dribbled through the streets of Pheonix Arizona.
To topple this record, the Revicon Forte Dribbling Challenge was set up last year to find the best 100 men who can dribble the longest. A prize worth P250,000 was up for grabs for the longest dribbler, and a bonus of another P250,000 if the record is broken.
Erwin Evanglista brought home P500,000 after dribbling nonstop for over two days.
The Cuneta Sports center was packed with the players, organizers and well-wishers. Professional basketball players Vince Hizon, Willie Miller, Rob Johnson, Topex Robinson and Jason Webb personally dropped by and mingled, and other celebrities sent their wishes over a widescreen.
