Video: Mini Claims Record for Tightest Parallel Parking Job

Back in August of 2011, stunt driver Ronnie Wecheselberger e-braked a VW Polo into a space only 10.2 inches longer than the car itself.

Last month, a man named Patrik Folco beat that record, sliding into a space only 8.66 inches longer than the car.

Now, Chinese driver Han Yue has smashed that record, settling a Mini comfortably between two cars with only 5.91 inches to spare.

The successful parking job is available after the jump, and it’s a clever trick. Still, I think the record would be more interesting if they had to park it like a normal person would.
