A STRONGMAN from Ukraine has broken three Guinness World Records using his beard, neck and teeth for the tests.
Dmytro Hrunskyi broke his first world record pulling the heaviest vehicle by his beard, a feat he had tried in 2019, but failed when his beard hairs got yanked out of his chin from the huge strain.
For his second try, the strongman experimented with different braiding techniques hoping to increase the strength of his facial hair.
Hrunskyi was successful in getting his chin whiskers to pull a 5,687-pound (2,579 kg) minibus, breaking the previous record of 4,303 pounds (1,951 kg).
He was confident he could grab the second title of pulling the heaviest vehicle by the neck as he had previously set the record for hauling the heaviest train pulled by the neck.
Hrunskyi also became the first person to pull a 17,107-pound (7,759 kg) truck for the required distance of 16.4 feet (4.8m).
The final record Hrunskyi set was for the most cars pulled with the teeth.
With a driver inside each car to ensure they moved in a straight line, the cars were placed in neutral with the engine off.
The bodybuilder completed the astonishing feat of pulling 19,365 pounds (8,783 kg) of weight in cars and their drivers, for the required distance.
"I dedicate these three records to my country and our soldiers," Hrunskyi told Guinness World Records.
