Spotlight: Martial arts student destroys walnuts using nunchucks

 

Every week we shine a light on the coolest, wackiest, or most unique records from around the globe recently approved by our Records Management Team with our Spotlight series.

This week’s video is a little nutty - Mujaba Hassan Mughal has just shattered the record for the Most walnuts smashed with a nunchaku in one minute.

The martial arts student from Pakistan cracked a stunning 97 walnuts in just 60 seconds using a nunchaku, or nunchucks – a potentially dangerous weapon which originated in Japan. As you can see in the video, not all of the nuts were counted as several did not shatter. But thanks to the speed of Mujaba's attempt, he still achieved an impressive total.

Nunchuck pro Mujaba exploded the previous record of 62 nuts that was achieved by Samuel Sprague (USA), proving that he is the ultimate walnut-smashing champion.
