KYIV, UKRAINE – While Russian troops were storming across the Ukrainian border in the winter of 2022, the soldiers of Putin’s army weren’t quite sure what they were getting into. Had they checked a recent Guinness Book of Worlds Record event, they might have realized the moral, mental and physical fabric of the Ukrainian population.
Making news in Ukraine was one man who pulls cars with his teeth. We’re told most Ukrainians can pull a car or two, when they’re not pushing abandoned Russian tanks out of the mud or pulling Russian APC with their donkey.
Ukrainians are a tough, strong, determined and gritty people and this Guinness record should have been fair enough warning to Vladimir Putin and his expansionist generals.
A 34-year-old Ukrainian man, Dmytro Hrunskyi, has broken two world records related to pulling cars using only his teeth. A year after setting the world record for the heaviest train pull by neck, Hrunskyi successfully pulled six cars and completed a 30-meter car pull in 15.63 seconds.
The first record Hrunskyi broke was for the most cars pulled with the teeth. He surpassed the previous record holder, Troy Conley-Magnusson of Australia, who pulled five cars in 2021.
The second record he shattered was for the fastest 30-meter car pull with the teeth. Hrunskyi completed the distance in 15.63 seconds, breaking the previous record of 18.13 seconds set by Saleh Yazan of Syria in 2022.
The feats were verified by official adjudicators and added to the record books. Hrunskyi remains unscathed, with all records and teeth intact.
