The Guinness World Records has become the primary international source of registering the world records which are made all over the world and these records are quite different from the records which are made in sports.
As the year 2023 comes to an end, we will tell you about four world records made by Indians this year which have been registered and verified by the Guinness World Records.
1. Smallest wooden spoon of the world:
Spoons are used by all of us for the purpose of eating food and it won’t be wrong to say that they are integral part of our lives and a person from Jaipur got his name registered in the Guinness World Records just for making a spoon.
Well, the spoons used by us are made up of metal but this artist named Navratan Prajapati Murtikar made a spoon of wood and what made this spoon special is the fact that it is the smallest spoon of the world. The length of this spoon is just 0.06 inches and he told GWR that making a wooden spoon is quite an easy task but making the smallest wooden spoon is certainly a tough task.
2. Largest card architecture of the world:
We all have tried to make pyramids from playing cards and many of us haven’t been able to make a complete structure our whole life but a 15 years old boy, Arnav Daga from Kolkata got his name registered in the GWR by using 1,43,000 playing cards for making iconic and famous structures of his hometown. Arnav created structures of the Shaheed Minar, Salt Lake Stadium, St. Paul’s Cathedral and Writer’s Building.
3. Woman with the longest hair:
Many women want to have long hair but very few are able to fulfill this desire because in the modern day world, our lives have become quite hectic and a person needs to take good and proper care of hair if he/she wants to grow it long.
Smita Srivastava, the 46 years old woman from Uttar Pradesh has got her name registered for having longest hair in the whole world. She has been growing her hair since the age of 14 and currently her hair measures to 7 feet and 9 inches.
While speaking to the representatives of GWR, Smita said that as far as the Indian culture is concerned, the goddesses have long hair and it is also considered inauspicious to cut hair because of which Indian women prefer to have long hair. Smita also added that long hair increases the beauty of a woman.
4. Dancing for 5 days continuously:
Dancing is one of the best ways to express yourself and also keep yourself fit but still why a person will dance for 5 days continuously. Well, the answer is for getting registered in the GWR, 16 years old Srushti Sudhir Jagtap started dancing from the morning of 29 May and she continued dancing till 3 June. She danced for 127 hours and in the process, she broke the world record by another individual and created a world record of dancing for the longest time continuously.
Congratulations to all the winners who got themselves registered in the Guinness World Records in the year 2023.
