In his bid to enter Guiness Book of World Records, a 45-year-old man
successfully completed performing yoga continuously for 69 hours on the
second International Day of Yoga in nearby Pollachi.
The attempt by Dr V Gunasekaran titled "Longest Yoga Marathon (Male)" began at five PM on June 18 and ended at two PM on Wednesday June 22,2016
Pollachi, Gunasekaran said that he took break for five minutes every one hour, as allowed, during which he consumed fruits and performed 200 asanas in the course of attempt.
Though the adjudicator from the Guinness was not present, there were videos, photographs, timekeeper and nearly 1,000 audience during the four days, which will be sent for the entry into the record book, Gunasekaran said.
The yoga was held at a marriage hall. The existing record in this segment is held by a team in China, which had performed continuously for a little over 47 hours, he said.
