Boy skips 228 times in 30 seconds for record

Cen Xiaolin, 15, can move his legs faster than most people can count. He broke his own rope skipping Guinness World Record by completing 228 skips in just 30 seconds at the sixth Double Dutch Contest Shanghai over the weekend. The event attracted more than 400 skippers and 60 teams from home and abroad. Another record was set by Wang Shisen for skipping 100 times in the "most double under" (where the rope passes twice under the feet) in 30 seconds.

Stunning sinkholes found in Guangxi

Geologists have discovered a group of 19 sinkholes in Baise, Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region-the largest cluster south of the Tropic of Cancer, according to the Ministry of Natural Resources. These sinkholes exceed 1 million cubic meters in area and are well-preserved. They feature lush vegetation, valleys and waterfalls. Scientists are interested in the different geological formations inside these holes as well as the many plant species at the bottom of the structures. The discovery is of great scientific value in the study of the geological formations of sinkholes. In 2016, 49 massive sinkholes were discovered in the Hanzhong area of Shaanxi province.
