A Ghanaian man identified as Patrick Amenuvor has called off a Stand-a-thon to break the Guinness World Record for longest standing by an individual a few hours after he commenced the attempt.

Amenuvors intention was to stand in a place without sitting for 7 days, from January 14 to January 21, 2024.

He, however, called off the attempt on the same day he started: January 14, 2024.

Amenuvor explained he took the action as he believed he violated some rules provided by the Guinness World Record.

In light of these developments, a comprehensive review by management is imperative. We aim to rectify any oversights and prevent future errors that may impede subsequent attempts, he added.

Amenuvor thanked all his supporters and Ghanaians for rallying behind him, adding that the stand-a-thon attempt is a dream he is passionate about fulfilling. (Vanguard)
