Giorgi Rostomashvili, a competitive strongman and weightlifter from
Georgia, recently showed off his Herculean strength by pulling a
200-tonne boat using only his middle finger.
A viral video shows Rostomashvili holding onto a metal ladder to
prevent him from being dragged into the water as he uses his middle
finger to drag the “Tamara 2” into the port of Batumi. The 40-second
video is heavily edited and doesn’t show the whole attempt, but
according to national media reports, the young strongman managed to drag
the heavy vessel 5 meters towards the shore.
Dunya News reports that a Georgian Records Federation jury confirmed
Rostomashvili’s record for the heaviest boat pulled with a finger. A
representative of the federation said they planned to get in touch with
the Guinness Book of World Records about confirming the feat.
