Bhubaneswar: Thirty-five-year-old Keshabh Swain is a hard nut to crack. No amount of reasoning can stop him from doing what he hopes will earn him fame on account of a unique ability.
"There is no record like this before. There is one of breaking 65 dry coconuts by a German but breaking green coconuts will be a record for me,” said Keshabh.
A fight instructor in the Oriya theatre world, Keshabh always wanted to get into the Guinness Book of World Records.
And as rules require, he has performed in front of a state minister and a sportsman of repute.
Keshabh will now have to repeat the act for Guinness book officials before he can finally enter the record books.
“Keshabh breaks 72 green coconuts within a minute,” said sportsman Hara Pattanik.
Now that is exactly the rate at which a healthy person's heart beats. Call it a love for coconuts or a desire to realise dreams, Kesabh is having a hard time with the tender ones!
