A Brit teenage genius has stunned viewers by smashing the all-time points record on British game show Countdown.
Jack Hurst made a whopping final total, highest ever in the 28-year history of the show.
The 18-year-old boy from Desford, Leicestershire, has been appearing on the show throughout the last week.
And on Friday''s episode, his eighth and final appearance on the show, he racked up a massive score of 946.
During his impressive performance on the Channel 4 programme, Hurst found six nine-letter words and won each game with a clear majority.
"It was a really good feeling," the Daily Mail quoted him as saying, after the show.
"After Wednesday''s show a producer told me I only needed 114 points in the last two shows to get the record.
"Then on Thursday's show I got 133, which was the highest score in the series," he said.
Hurst added, "I'm actually going for second place because the runner-up gets 1,000 pounds and I'd rather have that.''
Hurst's brother, Josh, a geography student at Manchester, said: "I went along to the filming with Jack and it was really great to see him doing so well.

A spokeswoman for Granada, which produces the show, said, "Jack was a terrific contestant with a great personality as well as a great brain, and he has every chance of winning the final on December 17.
