Listen Back: Shane McLoughlin set for Guinness World record by pulling 25 tonne truck

A Co Monaghan man will attempt to rewrite history this weekend by becoming the first Paralympian to secure his third Guinness World record.

Clones man, Shane McLoughlin will make the three in a row bid in the space of just five months by pulling a 25 tonne truck.

Shane is taking on the challenge at the Cavan Crystal Hotel at 5pm this Saturday afternoon. The 53 year old claimed the first World Record for the heaviest vehicle pulled in Dublin back in May, when he managed to tug a 18 tonne lorry.

Ronan Gargan spoke to Shane at the Cavan Crystal Hotel ahead of the big event.
