A Nigerian woman named Joyce Ijeoma who was trying to break a Guiness record by carrying out a 72-hour marathon of providing body massages to individuals in the Lekki area of Lagos State has collapsed hours into the exercise.
Ijeoma reportedly fainted at approximately 1 am today during her endeavour.
This incident has captured the attention of Nigerians, who have flocked to the comment section to express their reactions.
See reactions below:
Dammy: “It’s not a joke to stand for 5 hours, giving massages She should have set 30-40 hours, since she’s trying to set a record & not break a record. But I guess she doesn’t want anyone else to take on the challenge anytime soon, so she went for 72 hours. I applaud her still! Ko easy.”
Onyekachi: “How many hours did she get to pls? So sad for her, hope she’s fine now.”
SOP: “The lady being massaged did not move because she was undressed, I guess. I’m sure she was also worried. To the masseur, I hope she is doing better now. To others attempting to break a time record, please check your vitals thoroughly before and during the event. Study abroad?”
Micheal: “She did great, instead of making fun of her pls can we all support and encourage her. She has all my support”
Olori: “She didn’t prepare herself. For it so sad”

So sad I hope she’s doing okay 💔…this is why you need to really prepare physically before trying to break strenuous records like this down to having a health team on stand by to constantly monitor your vitals https://t.co/DlJ0y0Ew8E pic.twitter.com/9MYYQREsu1
