Shearer baggs 2142 in 50 hours work

We all know how hard shearing is, doing one single sheep brings out the sweat in me when I am not a free sweater.

Spare a thought for Scott Grant Hurcomb who did a massive 2142 sheep in a 50 hour period and he did it for charity, to raise money for cancer research.

Grant undertook a 24 hours shearing session back in 2015 yielded 934 sheep and he raised 21k pound.

For Grants 50 hour stint the stats are huge, it is estimated he burned over 31,000 calories, that's the equivalent of running 12 marathons
