  • Record attempt is up in the air

    Our reporter Dil Neiyyar writes

    Some say it's glorified keepie uppie. Others say it's an art form. Whatever you think...freestyle football ain't easy.

    One of the world's top freestylers plans to take it up another level by keeping a ball up in the air for 24 hours.

    25-year-old Dam Magness, hopes to smash the world record in the process. He'll juggle the ball using his feet, knees, chest, shoulders and head. In case you're wondering, he is allowed to take short breaks to have a drink or go to the loo.

    A special stage has been constructed in London's Covent Garden for the feat. Should be break the record he'll notch up somewhere in the region of 250,000 touches!

    We'll catch up on his progress on Friday's programme.

    Watch him practice here:
