Aug. 13 (UPI) — An Indian man unofficially broke a Guinness World Record when he balanced a field hockey stick on one finger for 3 hours, 35 minutes.
Raj Gopal Bhoi of Jamutjhula village, in the Balangir district of Odisha, balanced the field hockey stick on his right index finger, with numerous witnesses including Satyapira Padhan, a Guinness World Record-holder for most punches thrown in one minute with both hands.
Bhoi aimed to beat the current record of 2 hours, 22 minutes, 22 seconds, which was set by Himanshu Gupta in 2017.
Video of Bhoi’s attempt and statements from his witnesses are being submitted to Guinness World Records for official recognition.
