UPI – An India-based martial arts group, Bir Khalsa, achieved a daring Guinness World Records title when a blindfolded member used a sledgehammer to shatter coconuts arranged around another team member’s body.
The feat, performed on the set of the Italian TV show Lo Show Dei Record in Milan, involved smashing 69 coconuts in just one minute. Remarkably, the blindfolded martial artist completed the challenge without causing any harm to his teammate.
The total bested the previous record by Rakesh B and Prabhakar Reddy P, who ended their attempt with 50 smashed coconuts in 2020.
The Bir Khalsa collective hold numerous world records, including the recently-announced title for the most slices of a cucumber held in a person’s mouth with a chainsaw while blindfolded in one minute.
