Egyptian strongman sets Guinness World Record pulling 700-ton ships with his teeth: Video
Egyptian wrestler and strongman Ashraf “Kabonga” Mohamed Suliman has stunned the world yet again, setting a new Guinness World Record by pulling not one, but two ships weighing a combined 700 tons, using only his teeth.
Kabonga achieved the extraordinary feat in the Red Sea resort city of Hurghada, surpassing the previous world record of 614 tons held by a Ukrainian athlete.
“Today, I set a new record by pulling a 700-ton ship, surpassing the previous Ukrainian record of 614 tons. Thanks to God and the people who stood by me,” Kabonga said after completing the attempt.
Guinness World Records officials were present to verify the achievement.
“Today, Captain Ashraf Kabonga pulled a ship, and then two ships weighing a total of 700 tons, using only his teeth,” said Guinness adjudicator Mohamed Elnakeeb. “He accomplished the feat in two attempts, setting a new world record that no one has ever achieved before,” he added.
This isn’t Kabonga’s first time making headlines for his superhuman strength. The Egyptian wrestler already holds records for pulling the heaviest locomotive, a 279-ton train, and a subway car.
