A cook in Southern China has broken a Guinness World Record by roasting 216 lambs by himself, the China News Service reported.

Jiang Linsheng broke the record for “roasting the most lambs simultaneously”, which was witnessed by a Guinness official on Saturday.

Jiang roasted the animals on two metal racks about 10m long. During the challenge, which he completed in two hours, Jiang scuttled back and forth to baste, sprinkle herbs and re-roast the meat.
