“In his home country of Georgia, they call him “the King of Travellers”. In the rest of the world, they know nothing about the man named Jumber Lezhava and his beyond ‘kickass’ life, incredulous push-up world-records and mind-blowing travel feats!”
The project aims to inform the public/readers about one of the most exciting and interesting adventures of all time. Specifically, about the life and adventures of the bicycle traveler and Guinness world record holder Jumber Lezhava. Here are some of the records set by him:
5,011 push-ups in one hour
19,378 push-ups in 6 hours
34,955 push-ups in 12 hours
44,144 push-ups in 24 hours
1,730,000 push-ups in 100 days
4,800,000 push-ups in a year
2,806 press-ups (non-stop) in an hour
If you’re not impressed check out this: he traveled unaccompanied for 3333 days (from 1993 to 2003) through 238 nations and island states – and all their capitals – covering more than 500 thousand km; most importantly, he started this adventure in his 50s, at 53 years old.
Throughout his travel around the world, Mr. Lezhava was writing in his personal diary, discussing his adventures, stories, feelings, mindset, biography, and many more interesting things. The project would combine all these materials into one book, presenting one of the most exciting adventures of all time.
