Motorcycle stuntman Seth Enslow on Tuesday thrilled a crowd on the Sydney Harbour foreshore by jumping his Harley-Davidson roadster 55.99 metres to a new world record, DPA reported.
The old mark of 47 metres was held by fellow American daredevil Bubba Blackwell.
The stunt was a recreation of Evel Knievel's 1975 attempt to jump 13 buses at London's Wembley Stadium.
