Cork man breaks zorbing record previously held by cricket legend

An Irish adventurer has smashed cricket star Freddie Flintoff's Guinness World Record for zorbing 100 metres in the fastest time.

James Duggan from Funmanway Adventure Land in Dunmanway, Co Cork shaved more than three seconds off of Flintoff's record completing the 100m zorbing run in 23.13 seconds. Flintoff's record of 26.59 seconds had stood since 2012 when he made 14 different world record attempts as part of BBC Sport Relief.
