The story

A record made to be broken back.

On Earth Day 2024, on the coast of Kwale County in Kenya, Jimi planted from one sunrise to the next and set the official world record for the most mangrove trees planted by an individual in 24 hours: 30,469, beating the previous mark by more than 7,000 trees. It took him three separate attempts to get there. The result is documented in independent coverage.

Jimi reports planting faster than the pace behind the 47,460 mark in test runs. This is a first-party training claim, not a certified result. The next official attempt is not a published schedule.

Campaign structure

A comeback designed to create value at every attempt.

The proposal is built around a campaign rather than a single event. Jimi intends to keep pursuing the record if an attempt falls short, and each filmed attempt can create sponsor content of its own. The written sponsorship agreement must define the term, included attempts, deliverables, timing, and expiry before payment.

Campaign intent, contract clarity

Jimi's intent is to continue the comeback. The signed agreement, not this page, controls how long a sponsorship runs and which attempts it includes.

Each filmed attempt creates content

A 24 hour endurance attempt can produce footage and a story of its own. Exact assets, edits, channels, approvals, and delivery dates are confirmed in writing.

A proven record breaker

Jimi's certified 30,469 result provides a credible foundation. His faster training pace is self-reported and is not presented as a certified result or a guarantee of future performance.

Ask about the title sponsorship

Prices are in USD and are invitations to enquire, not checkout offers. Availability, placement, usage rights, schedule, deadlines, campaign duration, attempt count, and any repeat benefits are confirmed only in a written sponsorship agreement. No result or media coverage is guaranteed.

Proposed campaign value

What the campaign can create.

Footage that keeps giving

A filmed 24 hour attempt can produce drone shots, night planting, community footage, and the final count. The signed agreement confirms which assets a sponsor receives and how they may be used.

Real mangroves in the ground

The attempt is designed to plant real mangroves on the Kenyan coast with local communities. Site, planting, monitoring, and reporting details are confirmed for the scheduled attempt.

A piece of history

If the record is reclaimed, sponsors whose signed package includes the relevant placements can become part of the campaign story and film. The result itself is not guaranteed.
