Sandro Dias Drops 70 Meters on Porto Alegre Megaramp as Record Awaits Guinness Confirmation

Guinness officials observed a Red Bull–state stunt on the CAFF facade built for controlled high‑speed drops.

Overview

  • Mineirinho completed a series of descents on the 21‑storey Centro Administrativo Fernando Ferrari, starting around noon from lower platforms and progressing upward.
  • He surpassed the previous height mark at 65 meters and then executed a 70‑meter run on a subsequent attempt, after earlier drops from 55 and 60 meters.
  • Guinness World Records representatives were on site to validate the claimed height record and a separate speed mark, with formal confirmation pending.
  • Organizers installed eight platforms from 30 meters up the 85‑meter facade and engineered the ramp to extend beyond the roof for braking, with roughly 20‑minute intervals between runs.
  • The state describes the installation as the largest skate ramp ever built, and Red Bull pledged two skate parks in Rio Grande do Sul; a documentary on the project was also announced.
