Renowned Pakistani stuntman Sultan Muhammad Golden added two world records to his name during a thrilling stunt show in Quetta, Balochistan, on Saturday.

In a rare motorsport spectacle, Sultan set a new world record by completing a one-mile reverse drive in just 57 seconds.

The previous record had been set in 2022 by an American stuntman, who completed the same distance in one minute and 15 seconds.

The record-breaking run drew loud applause from spectators, with organisers noting the timing was the fastest ever recorded for a long-distance reverse drive.

Golden, however, did not stop there and soon returned to the track to attempt another world record.

He then successfully completed a reverse ramp jump over a distance of 121.72 feet, establishing another world record.

The previous record for a long-distance reverse ramp jump stood at 89 feet and 3.25 inches, which Golden surpassed comfortably, prompting renewed cheers and praise from fans present at the track.

Balochistan chief minister and governor later met Sultan after he broke the two world records.

The political leaders congratulated the renowned stuntman on achieving the feat during the show.

Balochistan CM Sarfraz Bugti also announced a Rs50 million prize money for Sultan in recognition of the notable stuntman setting two new world records.

"We are trying to provide all facilities to athletes in Balochistan," Bugti said while addressing the event's closing ceremony.

The chief minister said that Sultan made the country's name shine across the world, adding that such performances reflected the province's positive image internationally.

The event also featured a stunt performance by Sultan's son, Umar Farooq Golden, who successfully jumped a car over two ramps.

"I am trying to take my father's name even further," Umar said.
