Just how long was he planning to keep dancing?

A man who did not stop dancing for a whopping seven days has been drawing attention.

At a park in Lagos, Nigeria, a man is seen constantly moving his body.

He is Benjamin Daniel Gabriel, a well-known Nigerian dancer also known as Ben Dancer.

He started dancing on September 22 and finally stopped after an incredible 176 hours, 52 minutes, and 59 seconds.

His original goal was 168 hours, or seven days, but he reportedly continued dancing for nearly nine more hours even after hitting the seven-day mark.

This means he danced about 49 hours longer than the previous world record set by an Indian dancer.

He shared that he wanted to promote traditional culture to the world by dancing to various Nigerian music genres such as Afrobeats and Fuji.
