Indian man’s nose typing record not to be sniffed at as he secures even quicker time
The latest achievement by record breaker Vinod Kumar Chaudhary is not one to be sniffed at.
The Indian man has upped his game after practising hard to beat the record for fastest time to type the alphabet with the nose for a third time.
Vinod, 44, first claimed the title in 2023 with a time of 27.80 sec, getting his time down to 26.73 sec later that year.

And now, he’s smashed it again with a time of 25.66 sec.
To successfully complete the record attempt, Vinod had to type out the Roman alphabet on a standard QWERTY keyboard, and had to type a space between each letter.
Vinod, who works in the computer industry, says he’s become known as the “Typing Man of India” thanks to his record-breaking escapades.
He also currently holds records for the fastest time to type the alphabet backwards (single hand) with 5.36 sec and the fastest time to type the alphabet with hands behind the back with 6.78 sec.
Vinod also used to hold the record for fastest time to type using the nose - see him breaking that one in the below video...
The dad-of-four told us: “My profession has been typing, that is why I thought of making a record in it, in which both my passion and my livelihood remain.”
He added: “I believe that no matter how many problems you face in your life, you have to keep your passion until eternity.”
Vinod practised for hours to earn his world record and said typing with his nose would sometimes make him so dizzy he’d see stars.
But he insists everything is possible with enough practise.
Vinod was a runner in his school days, often taking part in 100 m and 200 m races, and dreamed of becoming a professional like Milkha Singh.
He wanted to help bring worldwide attention to his home country, and is doing his bit now by breaking world records.
Vinod’s secret to success is meditating daily and always thinking positively.
He says he’s always on the lookout for records he can break.
His dream is to break as many records as former international cricketer Sachin Tendulkar, who has a long list of titles to his name, including most player-of-the-match awards won (international career) with 62 and most centuries scored in international cricket with 100.
Vinod said: “Even a simple person like me can become a Guinness World Records title holder.”
