Australian motocross star Robbie Maddison successfully completed a 322 foot 7 1/2 inch motorcycle jump in Las Vegas on New Years Eve at the Rio Hotel and Casino, to beat the previous Guinness World Record of 277.6, and the non-certified record of 310.4. The jump was televised live on ESPN.
After successfully completing the jump, Maddison made another run, but only went 320 feet on the second attempt.
Maddison’s jump was scheduled to take place just after the ball drop in Times Square, but was delayed due to the Clemson and Auburn football game, which went into overtime.
