16-year-old cheerleader breaks world record

The Texas high school football and cheerleading scene is legendary for its intensity, but one cheerleader has become particularly legendary. Miranda Ferguson, 16, is a high school junior in Dallas, Texas. Last week, she broke the Guinness World Record for the greatest number of consecutive back handsprings during halftime at one of her school’s football games. She did back handsprings from one 15-yard line to the other and performed 35 total. Holy cow!

 

As she executed each move, hand-springing past a line of her teammates as the crowd counted along, Miranda knew making it to the finish line would be tough. But she made it—though she told a local Fox News affiliate reporter that she was a little worried she would fall before she made it to 35. She did slow down a bit towards the end, but break the record she did, and she couldn’t be more thrilled!

 

Watch the video of the accomplishment below and wish her a big congrats in the comments, cuties!

MOD MOD MOD,
I'm the average weight for my height and I don't consider my self skinny but not fat either. Just like a normal size. I am also very tall for my age. I'm 12 years old and 5'10. I workout (well try to) at a gym 3 or more times a week and I'm a dancer. Last night when I was getting out of the shower, I saw a stretch mark on my hip. Nobody wants them and I wasn't very hapy to see it. It's a place that would be covered up with a swimming suit or shorts so it's not like everyone would see it but I just don't want more, expecially for this age. I don't know if it's because I'm tall or for a different reason. I just want to know if they is any way to get rid of it. Is there something you can put on it or do I just have to workout more or something else? Thank you so much!

 

Hey girl! Don't you worry a thing about stretch marks. When I was 13 or 14, I had them ALL over my hips, breats, and thighs. Eep! But within two years, they've almost completely faded away. Now I've only got very slight ones on my thighs, and they're not noticeable at all. Most stretch marks at this age are growth spurt stretch marks, meaning they go away. Besides, ALL females have them. It's just part of being a woman, so own it, girl!

xoxoxo
