Zion Clark, who was born without legs because of a rare genetic disorder, set a new Guinness World Record for the fastest 20-metre walk on two hands earlier this year, clocking in at 4.78 seconds.
“I just went out there and I just got hot,” Clark told CTV’s Your Morning from his home in San Diego, Calif. on Monday. “I already made up in my mind that I was going to set the record.”
The 24-year-old officially set the record back in February at his old high school gym in Massillon, Ohio, with his coach and Olympic gold medalist Butch Reynolds cheering him on from the crowd.“
