Rashid Naseem, Pakistan’s premier record-holder, has once again made history by securing five new Guinness World Records, bringing his total to an incredible 121 records. His latest achievements further cement his status as one of the most prolific record-breakers in history.
Guinness World Records updated its website to reflect Naseem’s recent accomplishments, which span across multiple categories. These include:
- Most Punches with Boxing Gloves: Naseem surpassed Encroft of Jongland’s record, setting a new high for the most punches thrown while wearing boxing gloves.
- Breaking Chopsticks: He shattered 120 chopsticks in one attempt, breaking Ashrata Farman’s previous record of 108.
- Can Crushing with His Head: Naseem crushed 39 cans in 30 seconds, eclipsing the previous record of 29.
- Walnut Crushing with Elbows: Setting a new national record, Naseem cracked 169 walnuts with his elbows in 30 seconds.
- Breaking Yard Sticks with His Head: He smashed 77 yardsticks in one minute, outpacing the previous record of 63.
Naseem dedicated these latest world records to Palestine, showing his solidarity with the cause.
Despite his global success, Naseem expressed disappointment over the lack of support from government officials, stating he has been striving toward these goals for a decade. “I’ve stayed focused on my targets and plan to hit 200 records soon,” he said, demonstrating his unmatched dedication to breaking records for both Pakistan and the world.
Naseem’s record-breaking feats have taken him across the globe, including appearances on international television shows in Italy, Germany, Korea, China, and Singapore. He has broken records in various countries, including India, the United States, Germany, England, Switzerland, Iran, Egypt, and China, proudly representing Pakistan on the global stage.
