He’s only nineteen and the youngest member of the Crusty Demons, but Jackson Strong set a new world record by successfully landing an 85-foot front flip during the the last stop of the Crusty Demons ‘Beyond the Apocalypse Tour’ in Cairns this past weekend.

The young Aussie had made three previous unsuccessful attempts during the tour, but pulled-off the stunt in front of a 6,500-strong crowd at the Cazaly’s Stadium in Cairns, Australia.

“I’ve been working on the front flip on a dirt bike for a long time,” said Strong “It’s been a long time coming with my first attempt being about six months ago, where I under rotated the trick and lacerated my liver. So, it just pays off to be determined and let nothing intimidate you.”

After pulling off the front flip, Jackson will spend some time training at his home made jumps in Lockhart before heading to the States for the X-games.

Everyone would like to go down in history and have their fifteen minutes of fame and end up on TV and on YouTube. So check out this video from the show Record Breakers where a rider with 12 other people hanging on, attempts to pop a wheelie.

The wheelie lasts about a nano second, but they say it’s a World Record, so kudos to them, but we prefer the guy who makes a pizza while riding a motorcyle as an unusual stunt.
