Watch: Ice skater breaks Guinness World Record for jumping rope

Sept. 11 (UPI) -- A champion ice skater from Hungary took her jump rope out on the ice and broke a Guinness World Record with her skates on.

Eszter Szombathelyi, who earned titles as both the Junior and Senior National Champion in Hungary, went out on the ice in Sun Valley, Idaho, and performed 136 rope skips in a single minute.

The feat earned her the record for the most rope skips on ice skates in one minute, handily defeating the goal of 45 set by Guinness World Records.

"I want to inspire other ice skaters and performers to dream big, and show them that everything is possible if we are brave enough to do it," she told Guinness World Records. "I would like to expand the world of figure skating shows with a new, spectacular acrobatic element."
