Joyce Ijeoma, a Nigerian masseuse, says she is set to start a 72-hour longest massage on different individuals in Lekki, Lagos State.
Alastair Galpin who is the 2nd biggest Guinness World Records breaker of the 2000s decade, after breaking 38 World Records, currently holds the record for the longest full-body massage in 25 hours and 4 minutes, which was held in South Kalimantan, Indonesia in November 2015.
However, Ijeoma’s intention was made known in a video that went viral on Sunday, aiming at breaking the current Guinness World Record for the longest massage on different individuals.
According to her, she has done over 18 hours of massage in preparation for her record-breaking streak.
Ijeoma on her Instagram invited friends and enemies to support her on the move.
“A special invite to you all as I attempt to set a new record for longest massage on different individuals. Please come through for me.
“Your support and physical presence would be very much appreciated. Come with your family friends even your enemies,” she wrote.
