Man lifts a lady with his beard
Meanwhile, Briefly News earlier reported that a man, Antanas Kontrimas, set a Guinness World Record for the heaviest weight ever lifted by a human beard.
In an Instagram post by the organisation, the man pulled up a lady strapped to his beard. The human was so surprised that he did it.
The weight of the lady according to Guinness World Records was 63.80kg. To get the task done, the man bent like an athlete who was about to lift an iron weight with his hands.
