About this episode

The episode features a pig named Norbert, also known as Tony Pork, who skateboards and has set a Guinness World Record.

Interesting Things with JC #1637: “Norbert” – They call him Tony Pork. He’s a 175 pound pig that pushed himself down a suburban Illinois street on a skateboard using his back legs while steering with his front trotters, then crossed a 10 meter Guinness World Record track in 11.32 seconds after learning to balance on the board… but nobody’s seen him land a kickflip yet.
