Iranian record-breaker Abolfazl Saber Mokhtari has once again etched his name into the history books by setting a new Guinness World Record for the most spoons balanced on a human body — an astonishing 96 spoons.
Known for his extraordinary ability to stick objects to his skin, Mokhtari has now broken this quirky but challenging record three times. He first made headlines in 2021, when he balanced 85 spoons, surpassing the previous benchmark of 64. Not one to rest on his laurels, he pushed the total to 88 spoons in 2023, and now, in January 2025, he has achieved a new personal and global best.
“I can stick any object to my skin,” Mokhtari confidently claims, attributing his unique ability to a combination of body energy, skin texture, and intense focus.
The record-breaking attempt required immense concentration, precise balance, and patience, as the spoons were strategically placed across his chest, arms, and back. Witnesses and record officials confirmed the total and authenticated the achievement.
Mokhtari’s feat continues to fascinate and amuse audiences around the world, making him not just a three-time world record holder, but also a symbol of human curiosity and eccentric talent.
