For the average person starting out in the martial arts, it can be quite a struggle to achieve a simple high kick. But for Brett Sawley of the British Chi Taekwondo team, he and his team give the term high kick an entirely new meaning.

Appearing on the Guinness World Record stage on April 7th 2009, Taekwondo black belts Brett Sawley, Andy James and Ray Sawyer sought out to set the world record of the highest assisted martial arts kick.

The setup for the record attempt was simple, a kicking board was setup on a horizontal bar at the target height, which then had to be kicked by Brett after being launched into the air by both Andy and Ray. After successfully landing the kick Brett would also have to land successfully on both feet to complete the record attempt and avoid possible disqualification.

The first attempt of the record was set at 4 meters (13.1 ft), which was completed flawlessly giving the trio the world record.

But not ones to be completely satisfied with their handy work, they sought to break their newly minted record by upping the ante to 4.25 meters (13.94 ft).

Find out below to see if they manage to break their own world record for the highest assisted kick.
