HENDERSON, Ky. (WEHT) — An Owensboro group trying to break the world record for the most pushups says they may have broken the record.

Saturday at Iron Jungle Family Fitness in Owensboro the group of Tri-Staters tried to set the record.

They broke the record once before and now they’re hoping to do it again. The group says they did 22,784 pushups, breaking the previous record of 19,130.

The results of their attempt will need to be certified before the record could be given to them.
