He flew 45 metres, beating Thierry Neuville and Ken Block who only managed to cover 44 metres and 37 metres respectively in previous years.

 

Brynildsen walks away with this year's Colin's Crest Award, named in honor of the late Colin McRae.

He was also reported to have planned in advance before attempting the record-breaking jump.
