This man just broke the parking world record

Published: 20 Nov 2014

You are not very good at parking. You're just not. Unless you happen to be a middle-aged gentleman from China called Han Yue. If you are indeed Mr Yue, then (a) welcome to TopGear.com, and (b) congratulations for obliterating the record for the tightest parallel park...in the wooooorld. Again.

Yue's 2012 record of squeezing into a space just 15cm longer than the car was beaten a year later by Brit Alistair Moffatt, who slid into a gap with just 8.6cm wiggle room. At last week's China Drift Championship, Yue bettered Moffatt's supposedly unbeatable record by slewing his Mini Cooper S into a space with just 8cm to spare.

For the record, your iPhone 5 is 12.38cm long. Ballsy, Mr Yue.
