Some people spend their entire lives trying to find their calling in life. This man in India appears to have found his calling, and that purpose in life is crushing walnuts with the side of his hand.
Prabhakar Reddy P is the owner of a new Guinness World Record after crushing 212 walnuts by hand in 60 seconds. I’d actually suggest watching this video at 2x speed on YouTube if you have that option because it makes it even more surreal.
I don’t really understand how you wake up one day and realize that you’ve got a serious talent for crushing walnuts with your bare hands. Well, almost bare, he appears to be wearing some sort of protective glove that’s probably meant to shield his hands from the sharp shards of walnut shells.
In my mind, this dude was trained like Jean-Claude Van Damme in Bloodsport only instead of learning to break bricks like Frank Dux, this dude’s Shidoshi taught him to crush walnut shells with his bare hands. This is most certainly not a skill that’ll help you win the Kumite, but it at least netted Prabhakar Reddy P a spot in the Guinness World Records book which is more than most can say for themselves.
