At just six months and a couple of days, Rich Humphreys has beaten the world record by 23 days. 

The infant was filmed by his parents gliding across a lake while strapped onto a wooden board in Utah in the United States. On the now much-debated video, the little one can be seen clinging onto a metal bar as he is pulled along the water with his dad in another boat beside him.

The video was uploaded to the infant's Instagram page with a caption that read: “I went water skiing for my 6 month birthday.

“Apparently that’s a big deal …#worldrecord.”

Some parents took to social media to share their concerns for the infant, some citing that he should have a hat on, others saying the position is bad for his legs.
