One South African woman has been crowned with a Guinness World Record title after she broke the record for consuming the most chicken feet in one minute. 

In a competition which was shot by e.TV's 'Stumbo Record Breakers', Vuyolwethu Simanile competed against four of her colleagues who work at Mashamplanes Lounge - a restaurant and bar found in Umlazi, Durban.

Simanile ate 121g of chicken feet in 60 seconds, becoming the first person to achieve this title.

The contestants had to eat one chicken foot at a time and they were judged based on how many grams of chicken feet they consumed, not the number of chicken feet they had eaten.

According to the report from Guinness World Records, Simanile ate nearly twice the amount of chicken feet as everyone else.

She was awarded with a certificate for breaking the world record.
