Censor becomes Guinness World Record holder after pull-up attempt finally gets approved
Doug ‘Censor’ Martin has officially become a Guinness World Record holder after his application was initially denied, despite beating the world record for most pull-ups done in 24 hours.
Call of Dutypro and streamer Doug‘Censor’Martin is now the proud holder of a Guinness World Record after performing 9,250 pull-ups in a 24 hour period, beating the former record by over 300 reps.
His successful attempt took place on July 05, 2025 — but a month later, he was informed that theGWR had rejected it.
The governing body of world records claimed that his efforts were not done for his own “personal achievement” since his live stream of the attempt involved other brands and companies, one of which was Project Purple, a non-profit organization that aims to eradicate pancreatic cancer.

During his stream, he also advertised One More Rep Athletics & Fitness, a fitness company based out of the United States.
GWR was not present at Censor’s pull-ups livestream. We are proud to still offer a free application service for individuals looking to break a record for their own personal achievement, and the process can be made faster via our priority service.

Luckily, those conversations finally reached a conclusion, as Censor excitedly shared a screenshot of an email from the GWR with good news.
“We are thrilled to inform you that your application for Most Pull-Ups in 24 hours (male) has been successful and you are now a Guinness World Records Title Holder!” the email read.
He simply captioned the post “omg,” and it looks like his fans and fellow pros are just as happy as he is, based on their comments.
