28 April 2019
Lou Brown shore 497 merino ewes in eight hours in a woolshed in Western Australia on Saturday.
With that effort, the Aussie-based 31-year-old beat a record which had stood for 16 years.
It took him just under 58 seconds a sheep - no one has done it in less than a minute per ewe before.
