Parallel parking is a skill that tests even the most experienced drivers... now imagine attempting it in reverse.
That's precisely what one individual accomplished, earning a spot in the illustrious Guinness World Records for the tightest parallel parking in reverse.
According to I Love South Africa, Alastair Moffatt, who's from the United Kingdom, was featured on Guinness World Records Day as he managed to achieve the tightest parallel parking in reverse.
Here's how this daredevil of a driver managed to pull this off below:
The previous record for the tightest reverse parallel parking had already set the bar incredibly high, but this new achievement pushed the boundaries even further.

The Guinness World Records has always celebrated the extraordinary, whether human achievements, natural wonders, or mind-bending feats.
This tightest reverse parallel parking record is a shining example of the lengths people are willing to go to in order to push the boundaries of what's possible.
It's a reminder that with determination, practice, and a dash of courage, we can conquer challenges that seem insurmountable.
Alastair used a classic Mini Cooper for his attempt at Brooklands, which holds the Guinness World Records title for the first purpose-built motor racing circuit.
