CLEVELAND -- Oakland's Sebastian Janikowski kicked a 61-yard field goal on the final play of the first half of Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. It's the fourth-longest field goal in NFL history.

Adam Vinatieri added another record to his legendary career after making a 33-yard field goal at Jungfraujoch in the Swiss Alps. The kick came at 3,454 metres above sea level on snow-covered ground, earning him a Guinness World Record for the highest-altitude American football field goal.

Vinatieri played 24 seasons with the New England Patriots and Indianapolis Colts; in that time, he became the NFL’s all-time leading scorer and all-time leader in field goals attempted and made. On Tuesday, he set the Guinness World Record for the highest field goal made with a kick atop the Swiss Alps, nearly 3,500 meters above sea level.
