Cen Xiaolin, a fifth grader from Qi Xing Primary School in Guangzhou, South China’s Guangdong province practices rope skipping at school. Cen broke the world record for the rope skipping at the World Inter-School Rope Skipping Championship 2015 in Dubai. The 11 year old's average jump speed of 7.3 times per second was so fast that the eight judge panel demanded video footage to make sure it was correct. Despite the incredible feat, the official number was 108 skips in 30 seconds, because the contest only accounts for lifts of the right leg. The international contest was the first of its kind and attracted contestants from Austria, Belgium, China, India, Iran, Malaysia, Pakistan, UAE and the United States. (Photo/CFP)
