Some
might say Johnny Strange is living up to his last name, because he's
just entered the record books for pulling a huge AEROPLANE with his
EARS. Johnny, 26, used chains through pierced holes in his ears to drag a
Cessna 172-P weighing 677.8kg for 20.4 metres at North Weald Airfield,
Essex.
But being featured in the book is nothing new for Johnny,
an escapologist and sideshow performer who now has eight Guinness World
Records to his name. He said:
"I started off at the age of ten in
Blackburn, Lancashire. At first I juggled balls, then clubs and went on
to knives, fire sticks and now its chainsaws. Preparing for the plane
pull was tough. I'm not going into detail but I have to stretch my ears
and create tough scar tissue so they don't rip. I am always delighted
when I get another Guinness World Record and being featured in the book
never gets old for me, the only problem is I'm starting to run out of
places to hang up my certificates now. I'm a believer of the impossible,
I've always been interested in the unusual and the bizarre".
He has been dubbed 'The man with the ears of steel'. More photos below.
