18-year-old Abhishek Choubey pulled a Hyundai Accent, further than 5 metres, in just 48 seconds.

MADHYA PRADESH (Web Desk) – An Indian teen in from Madhya Pradesh state has set a new world record after he dragged a 1,070 kg (2358.94 lbs) car using just his shoulder blades and a tow rope.

18-year-old Abhishek Choubey pulled a Hyundai Accent GVS 2004 27.5 metres - much further than the 5 metres required by Guinness World Records - in just 48 seconds.

One end of the rope was tied around the front of the car whereas the other was fixed with a hook on a wooden block.

The boy grabbed the block between his shoulder blades and tugged the car without the help of any other body part.



“I decided to make a world record because I want to do something which no one ever did,” the teen told Guinness World Records.

"It’s my childhood dream to be a Guinness World Records holder," he said.

Abhishek is exhibiting the astonishing feat since the age of 8 years while starting with chairs and tables.

Such stunts are rare but in 2010 Azim Malik from the UK earned a record for the Most biscuits broken with the shoulder blades in one minute.
