A freestyle footballer has travelled 60 miles across the scorching Sahara desert - doing keepie uppies every step of the way. John Farnworth, 33, battled 40c degree heat and had to endure a treacherous sandstorm as he juggled a ball in the air 250,000 times over the course of six days. John plastered on factor 50 sun cream, wore a headscarf to keep the sun from his skin and donned specially-designed trainers to prevent sand from getting inside. He and three pals enlisted the help of four Moroccan locals to assist with navigation across the sprawling landscape and all eight of them slept in tents overnight. The only times John didn't keep the ball in the air between March 10 and 15 was when he was sleeping or taking food and toilet breaks.
