Nigerian Travel Enthusiast Aims to Set New Guinness World Record in 70 Hours

A Nigerian travel enthusiast named Saseendran aims to set a Guinness World Record by memorizing airport codes in 70 hours.
Saseendran has previously achieved a personal best of 104 airports in 60 seconds but felt nervous during the official attempt.
Guinness World Records required two independent witnesses for the challenge and initially rejected Saseendran's applications due to concerns over verification.
Saseendran remarked that overcoming adversity is essential for making history and dedicated a year to preparing for this record attempt.
