Iranian ‘human magnet' man breaks his own Guinness World Record for balancing nearly 100 spoons on his body- Watch video
Guinness World Records
continues to be a platform that celebrates and recognises these incredible and the truly unusual.
Be it the longest fingernails or people performing mind-bending stunts, such records go beyond conventional ideas of success.
But such instances often leave our minds boggling about what else people can do. And sometimes, the answer is truly unexpected and bizarre.
While many achievements in the Guinness World Records are about strength, speed, or tolerance, other incidents that get attention are because of their strangeness, making us laugh and wonder at the same time.
Recently, a man from Iran has 'magnetically' attracted attention towards him for breaking his own world record, once again.
Abolfazl Saber Mokhtari
from Iran has done it again. He has broken his own Guinness World Record by balancing as many as 96 spoons on his body!
The moment was shared in a video by the official Guinness World Records (GWR) account, with the caption, 'Most spoons balanced on the body
96 by Abolfazl Saber Mokhtari
(sic).' In the clip, Mokhtari stands still while someone carefully places spoon after spoon onto his body, which appears to hold them effortlessly in place, and look as if he's defying gravity.

This is his third record in the same category. According to the GWR website, Mokhtari first entered the record books in 2021 by balancing 64 spoons, followed by 85 spoons in 2023, before now reaching 96 in January 2024.
Social media reacts
The video has gone viral on social media and received many comments from users online. One user commented, 'Natural human magnet spotted
,' while another joked about the logistics of the act, writing, 'Maybe she glued the spoons (sic).' Another playful remark read, 'The real iron man button >>>>>>>>>
(sic).'
Despite the fun, the dedication behind such a stunt is undeniable. Balancing dozens of metal utensils on one's body requires patience, concentration, and an unusual level of body control,and also a willingness to go viral for something wildly unconventional.

Manish Goel produced and starred in the short film "Azaan" alongside his wife, Poonam, which has garnered significant recognition at film festivals Actor Manish Goel was recently seen in a short film that he produced and acted in, alongside his wife, Poonam. Sharing his experience, he said, 'Short film Azaan is produced by me and I have acted in it too along with Poonam. And we've received around 12 to 13 laurels and applause so far, which is surprising. Poonam is not abetting back to acting. But yes, I literally forced her to act in the short film.' The story was first brought to him a few years ago. 'This story I had liked somewhere around 2021. Akshit Sharma had come to me with this story and I liked it that time also. But I was not inclined towards a short film or the thought of producing was not even there. But this time when he came I felt like doing it. And he wanted me to act from day one. And then obviously Poonam also got rolled in and I produced it.' The film has travelled widely on the festival circuit. 'It's in 45 festivals right now, out of which around 20 got selected, out of which we were selected in 12 and won in 2-3,' he said. Goel also spoke about the learning curve of producing. 'Believe me, we had a one and a half day shoot. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Your Finger Shape Says a Lot About Your Personality, Read Now Tips and Tricks Undo I woke up at 4.30 in the morning.

Then someone else looked into production work because when I am performing, I don't want to be a producer.' Beyond this project, the actor who was last seen in Anupama has also completed a feature film. 'I played a gangster in that. And I had put on around 11 kgs for the character.

Given the success and popularity of the original film, Sony Pictures could opt for a theatrical release to maximise box office returns, rather than limiting the film to digital distribution.
