Minoru Yoshida from Japan is the world record holder for the most non stop pushups.  In October 1980 he completed 10,507 non stop pushups.  This was the last non stop pushups record to be recorded by Guinness World Records who now have a new category of the most pushups in 24 hours.  The athlete is allowed to take as many breaks as they need.
