Habibu Sani Garko has set a new Guinness World Record for the longest massage marathon. Taking place in Jos City, Nigeria, Garko completed a continuous massage session lasting 50 hours, 12 minutes, and 37 seconds. This surpasses the previous record of 25 hours and 4 minutes held by Alastair Galpin of Indonesia since November 2015.
Garko’s record-breaking attempt began on July 10 at 9 PM and ended on July 13 at around 11 PM. His goal was not just to break a record but to highlight the massage industry, support charitable causes, and raise awareness for street issues. “I attempted 50 hours, 12 minutes, and 37 seconds to make the massage industry pronounced, for charity, to showcase talents, and to create awareness for the street,” he said.
This achievement highlights Garko’s dedication and physical endurance. His accomplishment is particularly significant in light of previous challengers, such as Joyce Ijeoma, who aimed for 72 hours but collapsed after 50 hours. Garko’s perseverance brings pride to Nigeria and showcases the positive potential of the massage profession.
Garko’s record is now pending official review and confirmation from Guinness World Records. If confirmed, this will cement his place in history and inspire others to pursue their passions and contribute to their communities.
Looking ahead, Garko plans to use his achievement to make a positive impact on society, engage in charitable activities, and further promote his brand. His journey serves as a testament to what can be achieved with dedication and a noble purpose.
