Feb. 6 (UPI) — An experienced circus performer from Colombia broke a Guinness World Record when he juggled five balls for 45 minutes while doing a headstand.

José Valencia, 34, said he spent years practicing the trick before making an official attempt at the Guinness World Records title for longest duration juggling five balls while performing a headstand.

“I had worked so hard so many years, and this is the time that my work paid off,” Valencia told Guinness World Records.

Valencia performs with the Lumous circus, which is currently touring Europe.
