How do you play a musical note for 46 minutes?
Femi Kuti, son of late Afrobeat legend Fela Kuti, has vowed to repeat his attempt to set a new world record after falling short.
The official Guinness World Record for "the longest continuous note on a saxophone using the circular breathing method" is held by Vann Burchfield (USA), who managed 47mins, 5secs in 2000. Kuti clocked in at 46mins, 38secs in May 2017.
He shares his tips here with 麻豆社 Focus on Africa.
