Milton Keynes gamer becomes world record holder for the second time for his Minecraft skills

Shaun Wilson earned his first accolade of world record holder in June after creating the longest minecart track to be built and ridden in three minutes.

His track, built from his MK home, consisted of 305 pieces.

Shaun then set to work to beat his own record during a live stream for charity this month. He more than doubled it, building and riding 640 pieces of track in the three minute time slot.

He donated all proceeds form the live stream to a suicide awareness charity, in memory of his late friend Aston.

"I decided to break my record in honour of Aston," he said.

This week Shaun, who records his efforts on a YouTube channel called The Hickman-Wilson Network, received the official confirmation that he was once again a world record holder,

A spokesman for Guinness World Records confirmed: "The longest minecart track built and ridden in three minutes in Minecraft is 640 pieces, and was achieved by Shaun Wilson in Milton Keynes, UK."
