Kicker: The 10-year-old breaks a world record

Myrna Brown, host: So what did you do at the age of 10? Probably not set world records!

Meet Alberto Davila Aragon, a boy from Bristol who has just broken a Guinness world record for Pi's decimal places in one minute.

It all started last year when his school held a competition. The price? The chance to cake the headmaster in the face! A boy's dream becomes true.

Aragon learned 150 digits to win, but he didn't stop here. This year he smashed the world record and rattled 280 digits in just 60 seconds.

Pi Day was March 14th and it's about celebrating math. But Alberto? He is in his own league.

It is The world and everything in it.
