In an unusual feat, 39-year-old Peter von Tangen Buskov from Denmark has clinched an unusual Guinness World Records title by successfully placing 68 matchsticks into his nostrils setting a world record.
This accomplishment surpasses the previous goal set by Guinness World Records, which stood at 45 matchsticks.
Despite the seemingly uncomfortable act, Buskov expressed that it surprisingly didn’t hurt much, attributing his success to his large nostrils and stretchy skin.
Buskov told GWR, “Surprisingly it didn’t really hurt.
“I have fairly large nostrils and quite stretchy skin. I’m sure that lhelped a lot.”
Buskov revealed that he chose the matchstick challenge after researching various world records. While he doesn’t believe he can currently surpass his own record, he hasn’t ruled out attempting it again in the future.

“For me, an increase in capacity would require some training, or perhaps my nose will grow as I get older,” he remarked.
