Leila Noone had a good hair day!
The multidisciplinary circus artist, 39, recently broke the world record for longest time suspended by the hair — hanging by her ponytail for more than 25 minutes — according to Guinness World Records (GWR).
To break the record of 23 minutes and 19 seconds, previously set in 2011 by Suthakaran Sivagnanathurai in Australia, the American attempted the feat in a forest at California’s Redwood National and State Parks.
With an acoustic guitar player providing live music and a few people delivering positive affirmations during her attempt, Noone locked in the record with a time of 25 minutes and 11.3 seconds.
