Bloke smashes world record by running 100 metres in 12.82 seconds wearing heels

A serial record breaker from Spain ran a 100-metre sprint while wearing high heels in just 12.82 seconds, earning himself another Guinness World Record.

Christian Roberto López Rodríguez, who revealed his feat in an Instagram post, wore 2.76-inch stilettos as he sprinted to his 57th such record.

Christian dethroned Germany’s André Ortolf, who set the record in 2019 with a time of 14.02 seconds. The Spaniard's time was only 3.24 seconds slower than Olympic gold-medal winner Usain Bolt’s 100-metre sprint world record.

“The preparation was very exhaustive and specific,” Rodríguez, 34, told the Guinness Book of World Records.

“I find it very challenging to be able to run in high heels at high speed.

"In Spain, there are races like this, and they have always gone well for me.”

The type 1 diabetic, who is also the quickest sprinter while being blindfolded, in a sack, in clogs, and backward, said he wanted to show that those with the disease are not at a disadvantage in life.

The wacky Spaniard holds a plethora of weird titles, like fastest 100m balancing a baseball bat on a finger (13.83 seconds), fastest 100m balancing a guitar on a finger (14.31 seconds) and fastest 100 m juggling three objects whilst blindfolded (15.28 seconds).

Christian has also set a variety of other world records, including the longest duration balancing a bicycle on the chin (9 min 41 sec), the longest duration balancing an object on the nose (2 hr 42 min), and the most consecutive stairs climbed while juggling three objects (2,082).

He said he plans to continue trying to break records throughout 2023.
