Can take one Guinness world record, which is obviously a massive achievement,
but to take another nine that says something, you're not going away and guess what?
I'm not going away.
I'm Terry Turbo Burrows, the fastest window cleaner in the world.
When I found out there was a world record,
I knew I wanted to break it.
I had to work out the maths, the movements, the training it's gonna need.
And I thought, yeah, I can do that.
Bring it on.
When I first started out, my uncle Alfie taught me how to use the squeegee and applicator
and they would start wetting up with the right end with the applicator
and then switch it over and scrooge it off.
And I thought, why not just wet it up...
and do that.
Terry had a talent and he wondered where it might take him.
Every day, I get up about 7:30.
I come down and make myself some coffees, probably about three or four.
I'll do a bit of gaming.
And then my regime starts.
Welcome to the training camp.
I got myself a window and fixed it on the back of the garden shed and I was practicing the way.
And what was hilarious about all this was our neighbor mowing the lawn and be looking at me thinking,
why is he cleaning that window over and over again?
But the window don't go through anywhere.
It doesn't see anything.
What is he doing?
Terry entered his first competition aged 40.
I remember my first major competition was in France.
It was huge.
It was like an arena for the window cleaning competition.
I was absolutely bowled over, and then all of a sudden, this person comes up to me; they're carrying the union jack for me.
I thought, oh my God, this is like the Olympics.
This is amazing.
In those 8 to 9 seconds.
You gotta be as fast as you can.
You've got five moves per window and wipe the seal clean and you gotta keep all that together just in those few seconds.
It's nuts.
Terry took home the trophy and the next one and the next one.
Well, actually he won the next 15 competitions he entered and he's not giving up any time soon.
What you do is you start from the top here, go down like this and all the time your legs moved over into position.
And, uh, that is basically, it.
Don't look at that bit.
You must look at it.
It's my life passion.
You've got to be tunnel visioned, which I have been and not swayed one iota.
I plan to go out of the world as the fastest window cleaner on the planet.
So if any aliens are up there, um, that'll be cool.
You come down and take me on.
Let me dip you in my bucket.
You give you a squeeze.
Would you let me climb the ladder?
Oh, you're such a tease.
Let me swing you in my cradle.
Begging you.
Please let me dip you in my bucket of love.
I see you every day as you walk by.
I wonder if you know it's me way up in the sky or the fellas on the...
