Hi, my name is Thomas Blackthorne and I lift weights with my tongue
0:05
I have the world's strongest tongue. The challenges of this record are that I made a very stupid mistake
0:14
by thinking I would beat it by as much as possible so that nobody would ever challenge it
0:19
Not realizing that every year after that, productions from around the world, Mexico, Germany, France and other places say
0:27
can you beat your record? Three words to describe this record are
0:34
painful, a little bit frightening and painful. So how do you prepare for extreme tongue lifting
0:44
Well, you need a block of wood, a hammer, a nail and a tongue
0:57
And that's how you prepare for extreme tongue lifting. What is the meaning of this dragon snake
1:38
So the meaning of this dragon snake creature is it's the heraldic quest of the Visconti family ruled in Milan
1:47
which is where I'm doing this record and I like to make something that represents the city
1:53
So this is the heraldic emblem. Normally he would be eating a man or a child
2:00
but I took that out and put his forked tongue, it's wrapping around a nail like the nails I put through my tongue
2:08
So it's Milan that's welcoming me with its forked tongue. www.globalonenessproject.org
