A
42 year old Georgian man based in Tbilisi today broke a Guinness World record
that he himself created in December 2011: having the most spoons stuck on the
human body. Two
years ago, Etibar Elchiyev, called the ‘magnet man’, set the record by sticking
50 spoons on his body.
The
kickboxing trainer originally planned to break the Guinness World Record for
balancing spoons on one’s face – with 27 the current target to beat. But he
made the new weird Guinness record by managing to secure 50 metal spoons around
his neck and chest setting the world record for the Most spoons balanced on a
human body.
Today,
he succeeded in sticking 53 metal spoons, thereby breaking his own record. There
are doubts whether Elchiyev’s body really contains magnet to make the feat
possible. One commentator said he is only playing smart, as metallic objects
will stick to a hairless, smooth body.
But
Elchiyev maintains that his body acts as a magnet attracting metal objects. He
discovered the magnetic property of his body a few years ago, when he
magnetised a car hood to his body, with a man sitting in the car. The eclipsed
Guinness world record for the most spoons balanced on the face was achieved by
Aaron Caissie (Canada) on the set of Lo Show dei Record, in Milan, Italy on 18
April 2009.
Do
you believe this feat is real? Can a man’s body serve like a magnet?
Let’s have your reaction.
