Driven by his fascination with martial arts (武術) legend Bruce Lee and nunchaku (双截棍), Xie Desheng has gone on to win not just one but three Guinness World Records.
The nunchaku practitioner from Guangdong Province earned his first world record in June last year when he extinguished 52 candles in a minute using the weapon. His second was earned in April this year when he hit 32 pingpong balls in one minute. The 28yearold followed up that feat with another title the same month, unscrewing(拧开) 10 bottle caps with a nunchaku in 34.8 seconds. Xie may have been a nunchaku practitioner for a decade, but he does not simply enter these competitions without preparation. In fact, he says he trains for almost a year just to prepare for each Guinness World Records.
Xie first learned about this form of martial arts when he was a restaurant waiter in Dongguan, Guangdong Province, in 2009. “I love watching martial artist and actor Bruce Lees nunchaku scenes in movies. Once, when watching
