What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: ABC News & Headlines – Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
Chip DarnellA seventy-five-year-old woman in Perth, Esther Fischer, is now the oldest person ever to hold a handstand, and she held it for fifty-five seconds.
Brock ThundersonFifty-five? What did Guinness ask for?
Chip DarnellFifteen seconds.
Chip DarnellShe more than tripled it. The old record holder, from the United States, was seventy-four years and one hundred forty-five days old. Frankly, a kid.
Brock ThundersonAnd she started training at sixty-four or sixty-five, her gym owner says. She wasn't a gymnast or an athlete when she was young.
Chip DarnellIt took her three years to get it. She says it took ages and ages, and then one day she hit it. I'm fine.
Chip DarnellSomething's in my eye.
Brock ThundersonHer next goal is a one-arm handstand.
Chip DarnellRated: gold medal, ten out of ten, no notes.
Brock ThundersonForty seconds of free handstand. I'd have asked for a tip.
