Guinness World Records (GWR) took to YouTube to share a video that may leave you feeling anxious. The clip captures how an artist escapes from a water tank after being submerged in it with his hands and feet tied.
“Escapologist Andrew Basso looks to become the first person to break this record for the fastest time to escape from a water tank upside down with the hands and feet restrained,” GWR wrote as they posted the video.
The YouTube video opens to show two GWR members helping Basso get inside the tank. From then on, the timer starts, and he begins his escape. The clip further captures the audience waiting with bated breath for him to get out of the handcuffs and open the tank latch. The moment he succeeds, the crowd erupts with joy and cheers for him. The clip ends with him receiving his Guinness World Records certificate from an adjudicator.
