Man balances 96 spoons on body to break own record: 'I can stick any object to my skin'
Guinness Book of World Records ^ | 5/20/25 | Vicki Newman

An Iranian man who says he can stick any object to his body has broken a spoon-balancing record for the third time.

Abolfazl Saber Mokhtari first claimed the record for most spoons balanced on the body in 2021 with 85 – smashing the record of 64 that came before him.

He then broke his own record in 2023 with 88 spoons, and returned again this January with his new total of 96.

Wow —you’ve really got the vision!

Did you just come from the School of the Prophets?

(96 Seers)

And that’s just it about the greasy spoons — if he’d used Palmolive, im-Madge-ine the difference it would have made.

None of this sticky business.

I read posts like yours and I wonder if we live in the same America.

Granted I do not go to Wal*Mart that often but only because Meijer is a superior store. Always go for the place that is not on the stock exchange if you have the option. :)

But since they are all in the same general area I would assume the same people shop at both and I have never seen the people you described in any great quantity. Are there some? I guess. Obese people but most of them are walking around. I don't think I have ever seen someone in night clothing in the store, when I worked at the gas station it was another story. Hispanics yes, but not clogging up the aisles and most of the people who are slow walking are either elderly or looking for something that was moved in the last store reset.

Maybe it is in what you look for. I don't know. But it puzzles me.

If you were here, I'd give you a tour. I'm not the type to photo shoot people (I think it's rude, even in public) but I have seen sights I guarantee you probably have not. It may not be every day but it's quite common. The most frustrating ones are the ones with pet animals. Mostly dogs but I have seen a small monkey in WalMart once.

I guess there are two Americas.

I have seen a dog occasionally, usually with someone who is training them as a service dog. They are well behaved and no trouble.

Nope, not service dogs. Pooches of all varieties and sizes. Almost everytime I go in there. Yesterday, this older large woman had a poor dog that was grossly overweight. It was as wide as it was tall, but it was short.

That must be the same Walmart with the parking lot that looks like a Cadillac dealership and the entire section of the store with the many Lobster tanks and fine steaks counter for the people on SNAP.

We have a small Walmart south of here and a large Walmart north of here that fits your description.

Everything relates to demographics. The bad cities have bad Walmarts

Nope. Not that. Cars with missing fenders, duct tape holding mirrors on and hail dents. The bread aisle has 95% white bread and honey wheat and very small section of healthier breads and many times picked over and empty. Soda and candy aisles fully stocked of course. Plenty of EBT customers or Latinos flashing hundreds as they pay their bill.

You live in a dismal world, you should ask for better glasses.
