Nigerian dancer Benjamin Daniel, also known as Ben Dancer, has completed a seven-day dance marathon in Lagos, recording more than 176 hours as he attempted to set a new Guinness World Records title. Daniel ended the challenge at about noon on Tuesday at Freedom Park, Lagos, after continuing for more than nine hours beyond the seven-day mark he reached at about 3am.
His team said the timer recorded seven days, eight hours, 32 minutes and 59 seconds at the end of the challenge. The 33-year-old had set a target of 168 hours, seeking to surpass the existing Guinness World Records title for the longest dance marathon by an individual, which stands at 127 hours. However, Guinness World Records is yet to recognise Daniel as the new record holder.
