A professional golfer set a Guinness World Record earlier this month, after he hit a 303-yard drive into a BMW convertible that was cruising at 71 miles per hour.
The moment was all captured in a commercial and shared on social media earlier this week. On Thursday, the European Tour’s Twitter account posted an approximately seven-minute video in which 33-year-old Marcus Armitage joined 41-year-old British race car driver Paul O’Neil to accomplish the impressive feat. The two had been aiming for the longest drive hit into a moving car.

After the first few attempts, Armitage and O’Neil connected on a drive and celebrated prematurely before learning that Armitage’s drive was measured at 268 yards — just five yards short of the previous record set by golfer Jake Shepherd and driver David Coulthard. After a few more tries, Armitage and O’Neil connected on the record-breaking drive.
