An athlete creates as incredible moment and wins the world record title for ‘pinky pull-ups’ . In just 30 seconds he uses his little finger to lift his own body weight 16 times. The video shows an Indian Maibam Itomba Meitei. Using only his two little fingers he pulls his 51 kg body weight up with ease. To do as many pull-ups as possible, Maibam had 30 seconds. He had to make sure his chin was above the bar when he came up in order for each pull-up to be counted. His arms also were fully extended on the way down.
Before he was confident he could set the world record, the 26 year old had to put his little fingers through extreme training. He is also no stranger to weightlifting. he actually spent the past 14 years perfecting his pinky pull-up technique. The video of March 15 which shows Maibam pulling himself into the Guinness Book Of World Records in Imphal, Manipur, India has been viewed thousands of times online.
As the count down begins, the 26 year old lifts his entire body with his small finger which is inserted to do the hook attached to the bar. At the beginning he does it very fluently. Normal people are not able to do it at such pace with the help of their hands but he makes it seem almost effortless. But as he continues he slows down. He does 15 counts but in the 16th one he str*uggles but he completes it perfectly.
