Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>Egypt’s strongman Ashraf Mahrous, also known by his nickname Kabonga pulled 20 cars on Friday during an attempt to create a new Guinness world record of most cars pulled by an individual.<\/p>\n

Officials from the Guinness World Records were not present during the event, but Mahrous said that he will send videos and photos of his attempt to be evaluated.<\/p>\n

“Hopefully today I will upload all photos, videos and links to Guinness World Records to document this huge event,” he said.<\/p>\n

The current holder of the title of most cars pulled by an individual is Kevin Fast who pulled 15 cars during his attempt in 2014.<\/p>\n

In March this year, Mahrous received formal recognition by the Guinness World Records in three categories, including the heaviest rail pull using only his teeth.<\/p>\n

His two other certificates are for the heaviest locomotive pull and for the fastest 100-meter road vehicle pull.<\/p>\n

He is planning to break a new world record of the heaviest ship pulled by teeth this month in the Red Sea resort of Hurghada.<\/p>\n
