- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ต.ค. 2024
- There are hundreds of thousands of window cleaners in the world, and Terry “Turbo” Burrows is the fastest of them all.
He started cleaning windows when he was just 21 and went on to set a Guinness World Record speed in 1995. Since then he’s gone on to break his own record a further 9 times.
Discover how self-confessed perfectionist Terry gained this record-breaking skill, with the help of a black belt in karate and his trusty squeegee. Terry is now long retired, but he still practices his life’s passion daily in a specially made shed to maintain muscle memory.
He has perfected his regime down to 16 precise moves which he believes are crucial to maintain speed and cleanliness. So what’s his secret?

He is the living embodiment of
"Whatever you do, strive to be the best at it"
I am the best rice eater

He sure has a CLEAN record.
So CLEAN you could see through it.
Except for that bit, don't look at that bit
Ayeeeeeeee
Ayeeeeeeee
Booooo
Gotta love this man’s enthusiasm
He had my support right up until the end when he sang his original song full of sexual double-entendres for window cleaning. That's a little too much "enthusiasm" for me.🤣
love how he's not afraid to show his passion. life goals
This man is a treasure to not only England but the world. We're better for Terry being here
I always appreciate a person who takes their work seriously and strives to be the best at it, whatever the job is.
the best part about this is that he plays games every morning
omg that song at the end, this man is an absolute gem 😭
Watching Terry clean a window that fast is amazing! 😄
When Terry shows up you already know it’ll be a “clean sweep”
hey
Luv me clean windows, hate me dirty ones.
Simple as.
He's old but still wining competitions
i too, watched the video
He has such good energy XD. He really is just... sharing a thing he has fun with.
So glad to see this channel alive again.
Love these kinds of stories. I would have never known this was a thing until I saw this video! Love seeing Terry's passion, dedication and not giving up!
2:07 man be posing like a fortnite character
As silly as competitive window cleaning sounds... It just inspired me to clean my windows...
Awesome story! Also, I’m REALLY glad this channel is up and running again ❤️❤️
i'm just glad you guys are back!
even something simple as cleaning windows will become beautiful and will give meaning to your life if you do it with passion
Haha, what a great story. Love his passion. Window cleaning robot makers: Study this man before he leaves us! 🙏
Too bad, as per April 21st 2023 Terry Turbo left us just two days ago (April 19th 2023) ((presumably while theyre editing the video))
@@mumtrz bro you fooled me before i saw the date
@@auliamate gottem 😂
That's what make ppl proud of what they do, recognition and appreciation.
He's so lively and friendly, love it
This guy's faster at cleaning windows than most antivirus
The return of a king: Great big story🗿
🗿
Cringe emoji 💀
@@mumtrz and somehow an emoji is still more useful than you will ever be
This earth never stops hitting me with the most bizarre things people can do and Great Big Story is making it easier to see
Never knew such a sport even existed.
Please do a video on shuwa in Oman
I also clean fast. Yet they ain’t clean enough😂
In navajo, 'window' is tsa'soh.
Its 2 words,
Tsa-means rock
Soh- means star.
But when u say them together, its not, "rock-star". It just means , WINDOW.
I really missed such great, light-hearted content when the channel stopped posting.
The fact that this guy likes video games probably explains why he decided to come up with a faster and more efficient way of cleaning windows.
And he plays videogames, what a chad
he would be the best relative ever
Simon Cowell in a parallel universe :)
He seems like such a cool fella haha
I hope one day Ill be able to find something I can confidently say about: "this is my passion"
great video
Can you make a video about how drums are made? There aren’t many videos about it online and its really satisfying to watch
Nah nah they dipped for 2 years and are magically back not complainin at all❤
That was funny. It's so weird and awesome at the same time! I liked it!
That's the cleanest window in the world
Absolute Gigachad no question about it.
I freaking love the fact he still plays video games ❤
この動画が好きです。私も日本で掃除をしたり、ギターを弾いたり、魚釣りをしたりしています。（日本の埼玉より）
I like this video. I also enjoy cleaning at the Japan, playing the guitar, and fishing. (From Saitama, Japan)
This guy doesn't mess around when washing windows. 😅
I thought this channel closed down? What happen?
I really missed you, Great Big Story :")
I need him to clean my windows 😂😂
He seems like such a nice person
he's quite literally speed running cleaning windows
You don't have to do something great, you just have to greatly do the things you do. He's a pro
cleaning clean windows, but yeah its entertaining.
love the little singing performance at the end! so wholesome 💖
Good thing he isn't paid hourly lol
that's fast
I loveee this man's personality
Now give him a dirty window to clean 😂
This would encourage those into spring cleaning 🧽🧼🧹
I would love to add him on xbox
This is not a great big story.
This literally so mundane yet so awesome at the same time!!!! 😂
THE GOAT
What a character! I'd love to have a drink with him 😁👍🏽
I just found out this channel came back. Life's good
Mans the full package, a living legend
your back :}
He even has a squuce song
NO WAY U GUYS ARE BACK?!?!?!?! Or is this just another company running this account 😢
Been a window cleaner for 25 years now. You are definitely quick! But your squeegee is very small. We typically use 18 or 22" blades. Cheers!
I use the 14 inch (35 cm) more then the 45 cm, think thats the 18 inch right? All the best from the Netherlands, windowwashing for about 10 years now.
Great work Terry!
Washing windows for 10yrs now and had no clue there was a world record.... I'm coming for you
Terry Burrows
That's all very jolly but the surface of the glass is not being cleaned. A LOT more scrubbage is involved. 20 years on the job.
So Mario is also a very good window cleaner…
And here with my talentless skills of watching others
As a cleaner, the two hand technique is something you pick up here and there in the circle, I first heard of it from my friend when I was just starting out.
I wonder how the homeless guys at intersections might do if given an opportunity (and clean water)?
I love how he starts his day with 3-4 coffees and playing Xbox, how cool is that :D
Just wondering. What if you printed a squji and the cleaner on same tool? Like a 2 in 1
He’s got a clean record that’s for sure.
Terry " the professional" !!
Great big story make a video of the voice of SpongeBob rocko and ice king Tom Kenny
You bet i clicked as fast as i possibly could. I will never be quicker.
Let me guess... the game he plays is Window Cleaning Simulator
and here is me, I started cleaning my window last yr but I never got around to finish it!
I guess we don’t need to call Wallace and gromit then
Better than going to college and working for someone else, thats for sure!
OK, algorithm, I'll watch the window cleaning video
I will happily volunteer my house if anyone wants to practice.
thats great and all but how would these stand up to a middle aged Karen critiquing it in the sun?
New video? My family have missed youuuuu. 🎉
I now know that I probably need to take a small break from youtube and get some work done
Damn, morning gamers really are built different
Sorry bud I'm coming for the belt I'll see you in about a year.
“Top ten plastic chairs that enthusiasts would die to own” type beat
such a wholesome dude =
When both the older and younger generation gives you emotional damage
he seems like a fun guy!
I've just realized this channel is being continued
