Belgian physiotherapist Glenn Valentin climbed the Col du Tourmalet in a jumping ball.
The 18 kilometers were covered in just over 11 hours.
The challenge was taken up yesterday, with total success.
“It’s the first time I do it and it’s very hard but I think I can do it”, he explained to South West before departure.
“My pace is about one and a half kilometers per hour. It pulls in the legs and buttocks, I also have a little sore wrist and it takes mental energy”, he specifies then.
It will finally take almost 11 hours to climb this pass.

Heh...I watched the (Belgian) news yesterday. Nearly half an hour of how people must maintain social distancing and/or refused to do it. This piece wasn't even an item (and I have no idea who Glenn Valentin is).

So...nice piece of trivia, I'll give you that. But it's not exactly relevant. :unsure:
