A former Manchester City footballer has become a Guinness World Record holder for launching a throw-in longer than a blue whale.

\nMegan Campbell, a London City Lioness centre-back player, has become the first woman to break the 35m record by lobbing a football 37.55m.

\nA mannequin was placed at the 35-m mark on the club’s training ground in Aylesford, Kent, England, and her goal was to hit it or throw it even further.

\nMegan, who thinks her hypermobility – having joints with a big range of movement – helped her to make history on April 30 – told Guinness World Records: \u201cIt\u2019s an amazing achievement for me personally to have that now, as the first ever. But ultimately, you want someone to beat you, I want someone to be more successful than me because then that means I\u2019ve put another player in a better place.

\n\u201cYou\u2019ve got to be someone that people can look up to and want to achieve things from, so of course I want someone to go on and beat my record.

\n\u201cI think my record might stand for about a week until someone gets hold of the information.

\n“When I come up against an opponent now, it\u2019s no secret I have a long throw.”
