A man in Tasmania has broken the world record for the most chest-to-ground burpees completed in a single hour by pumping out 851 of them!

Charlie Gard broke the previous record by doing an extra 70 burpees, telling ABC News that he'd been preparing for the challenge for quite some time.

"I did a few more than I did in training so I was pretty happy with that. I knew it was going to sting a bit more if I went about it a bit harder."

Charlie broke the record in front of bystanders, friends and family members, saying that he was completing the challenge to raise money for prostate cancer research after his wife’s father was diagnosed with the disease.

What a champ!
