The records come after Josef achieved the record for the "Longest duration full-body burn (without oxygen)" in 2013 by spending 5 minutes and 41 second on fire in a full-body burn at Salzburg Fire Department in Austria.
The new horse feat involved him travelling 500m while completely engulfed in flames in Teichalm-Fladnitz, Styria.

"That’s pretty cool and amazing.”
