A bulldog called Otto has set a new world record for skateboarding. The animal was able to keep its skateboard in full control as it passed underneath a human tunnel comprising 30 people. The record attempt was set in Peru. The owners of the three-year-old animal were inspired by the feats of skill by another skateboarding bulldog, which died earlier this year.
