A terminally ill man who is paralysed from the neck down has set a world speed record in a custom-made electric wheelchair. The father of two, from Rise in East Yorkshire, had been aiming for the record for about three years. Mr Liversidge - who once hit the headlines for trialling a synthetic voice with a Yorkshire accent - was presented with his official Guinness World Records certificate at the airfield after setting the new mark earlier on Sunday. Earlier this month he set a new UK time trial record at the same venue. His wife Liz said: I think it is safe to say he feels amazing. We just want to thank everyone who has been involved - it's been a long road, but here's finally got there. Mrs Liversidge said: Jason has always been a bit of an adrenaline junkie.
