A record-breaking feat has been achieved by firefighter Jonathan Vero from France. He ran a distance of 893 feet in just 17 seconds while wearing a protective suit that was set on fire. This unusual task has been accomplished seven times since 2009, according to the Guinness Book of World Records.
Vero dedicated three months to training for this achievement, surpassing the previous record set by Keith Malcolm in the UK in 2009. Vero ran three times the length of Malcolm’s run, completing a distance of 893 feet.
The most recent record was set at 670 feet, but Vero ran over 200 feet farther with a time 7.58 seconds faster.
With a lifelong passion for fire, Vero has always been drawn to work with flames. He is not only a firefighter but also a stuntman, performing acts such as fire juggling and fire eating. Vero enjoys pushing his limits and has no plans to stop. He states, “I’ve still got a lot to try and a lot of records to go for.”
Vero chose to attempt this record in Haubourdin, France, where he trained as a child, to pay homage to the city that shaped him. His fascination with fire started from a young age, and he continues to explore its possibilities through his stunts and accomplishments.
