Man bends seven steel railroad spikes for Guinness record

Dec. 5 (UPI) — A New York state college professor set his second Guinness World Record when he bent seven steel railroad spikes in one minute.

William Clark, a professor in the Binghamton University health and wellness department and a former Olympic strongman, bent seven steel spikes at the college Tuesday, beating the previous record of four spikes in one minute.

Clark said his accomplishment was aimed at spreading awareness of living with anxiety and stress.

The professor previously set a Guinness record in August 2018, when he ripped 23 license plates in half in one minute.
