Nigerian Biochemist Sets Guinness World Record for Longest VideoGame Marathon

—

Nigerian biochemist Oside Oluwole has achieved a Guinness World Record for the longest videogame marathon. Guinness World Records recognized his accomplishment on social media, declaring him the new record holder.

 

Oluwole, aged 24, played a soccer video game continuously for 75 hours, completing over 500 games. This surpassed the previous record of 50 hours set by Englishman David Whitefoot in 2022.

 

Originating from Ijebu-Ode, Oluwole undertook this challenge to raise funds for a local hospital.

 

Guinness World Records praised Oluwole’s achievement, highlighting that he significantly surpassed the previous record. They stated:

 

“No one has previously broken this record by such a wide margin as Oside has. The record was first set in 2010 with a duration of 24 hours and had gradually increased to 50 hours after being broken seven times over 11 years.”
