Sultan Muhammad Khan, also known as Golden, is a Pakistani motorcar and cycle stuntman. He is also a jumping specialist who made a decent name for himself back in the 60’s and 70’s after he performed stunts that included reverse jumping at 150 feet over 15 cars. Golden later set the world record in 1987 when he jumped over 22 cars and covered a distance of up to 250 feet. During the process, he defeated several infamous stuntmen from the US who held the record of 246 feet.
