Video: Nigerian lady, Joyce Ijeoma collapses while attempting Guinness World Record for longest massage
A Nigerian masseuse, Joyce Ijeoma, who is attempting to set a Guinness World Record for the longest massage on different individuals, has reportedly collapsed.
The 72-hour massage-a-thon attempt is ongoing in the Ikate, Lekki area of Lagos State, Nigeria.
Although Ijeoma’s record will be a first, the Guinness World Record for the longest full-body massage was about 25 hours, 4 minutes.
A South African, Alastair Galpin, recognised as the second Guinness World Records breaker of the 2000s (2000-2009), set the record in South Kalimantan, Indonesia, in November 2015.
In the now-viral video seen, Ijeoma who has done over 36 hours, collapsed.
A video of the unfortunate incident posted on social media platforms, seen by BarristerNG on Tuesday afternoon, saw a colleague of Ijeoma trying to help her through the ground while she struggled for balance.
The Instagram live, which aired her activities, ended abruptly.
No official statement or update about the incident has been issued by her team as of the time of filing this report.
