WORLD'S FASTEST TOILET: If you have the need for speed but hampered by a weak bladder perhaps you should invest in Van Vugt's 75km/h motorised toilet.

 

SYDNEY, Australia - Stunt woman Jolene van Vugt was flushed with pride after setting a land speed record for the fastest motorised toilet.

Mr Crapper would have been proud.

Van Vugt, a former Canadian motocross champion, steered the contraption through some early wobbles to 75km/h in Sydney, seven km/h faster than the previous Guinness world record.

Van Vugt said: "I flew into Australia yesterday and came out here to jump straight on the toilet.

"That was so fun and I'm stoked to get the record."

Well, as they say in Oz, if ya gotta go, ya might as well go fast...

Van Vugt, in Australia to perform at the Nitro Circus stunt show based on the hit MTV series, holds a number of world records, including being the first woman to backflip a dirt bike.
