According to Golden, he made a record during his practice session for the upcoming Chitral Shandur Polo Tournament in Saidu Sharif, Swat. Hailing from Balochistan, Sultan Golden shot to fame in 1984 when he jumped over 15 cars and drove through three burning wooden walls. However, it was 1987 when Golden received the international fame after jumping over 22 cars, covering a distance of 249 feet with a motorbike to break the previous world record and enter the Guinness Book of World Records. While talking to The Express Tribune, the Pakistani daredevil said that he used to be jumping specialists and had set the world record of jumping over 22 cars covering 249 feet distance in way back 1987, by leaving behind American jumper’s record for leaping 246 feet over cars. The preparation for creating more records during the forthcoming festival is underway at scenic Swat valley and people around the world would witness Sultan Golden in action with his car jumping.
