Dylan Sorensen is a track coach at The University of North Carolina.  And apparently, he's got the eye of the tiger when it comes to a particular world record:  Fastest Mile While Dribbling A Basketball.  Now, he initially set the record back in May (see video below) when he ran a mile in 4 minutes and 37 seconds.

Now, it seems he wasn't the only one dead set on holding this record as it was broken on several occasions since.  However, Sorenson has put his name atop the list again this month, accomplishing the feat in 4 minutes and 33.73 seconds-JUST squeaking by the current mark of 4 minutes and 33.75 seconds.
