Finnish Circus Performer Pulls 2,184-Pound Carriage With His Nipples — Sets New Guinness World Record

“A Finnish circus performer known as The Baron has claimed the Guinness World Record for heaviest vehicle pulled by the nipples, dragging a 2,184-pound carriage across a Munich TV studio using only his body piercings. He edged out the previous record-holder — an American performer called The Great Nippulini — by fewer than five pounds.”

Why It's Weird

The most bewildering news often comes from situations where multiple unlikely events align perfectly. While the weirdness score is more modest, the story still offers a fascinating glimpse into life's unexpected moments.

March 24 (UPI) -- A Finnish man used his body piercings to break the Guinness World Record for the heaviest vehicle pulled by the nipples -- 2,184 pounds.

The professional circus performer, known as The Baron, had his partner sit in a carriage to bring it up to weight on the set of Guinness World Records' German TV show Die große Show der Weltrekorde in Munich.

He used the piercings on what he described as "the world's strongest nipples" to pull the carriage, breaking the record of 2,179.27 pounds, set by American Sage Werbock, aka "The Great Nippulini."

The Baron previously broke the Guinness World Record for the heaviest weight lifted by the nipples in 2013, when he lifted 71.87 pounds of weight and held it for over 8 seconds.
