Chinese stunt driver Han Yue has claimed a new Guinness World Record for the
tightest parallel parking job, sliding his MINI Cooper Chinese Job into a
parking spot just 5.91 inches (15 cm) longer than the vehicle itself.
Beating this record is apparently becoming very popular. Back in August last
year, driver Ronnie Wecheselberger e-braked a VW Polo into a space only 10.2
inches longer than the car itself. Then, just last month, a man named Patrik
Folco beat that record, sliding into a space only 8.66 inches longer than the
car.
