Inventor Chris Collins wanted to beat Andy Jennings’ 45.092 mph Guinness World Record for fastest garbage can set back in 2021, so he came up with a few ideas. It all started with a custom metal chassis using the wheelie bin as the base. The first issue was trying to get the engine inside while still being able to fit Chris himself, which meant going the tricycle route.
This meant that a bicycle wheel was used up front, before adding disc brakes to the two smaller wheels in the back. Once everything was polished up inside, the team headed to Redline Raceway to see if they can break the speed record. Let’s just say that things turned out better than expected, as it managed to shatter the speed record after hitting 62 mph with the lid closed and 63 mph having it open. Make sure to watch all the way to the end to see what happens when things get pushed too far.
