The man, who spent five days counting each strand of his hair, still couldn’t set a Guinness World Record.

Recently, a video has been widely shared on social media platforms involving a man who counts each strand of his hair from his head for five whole days. He would spend around 10 to 12 hours every day counting his hair. The video has gone viral and attracted varied reactions from netizens.

A man counts every strand of hair on his hand.

The man spent five days counting every strand of hair on his head. He claimed to be the first person ever to attempt such a thing. However, he still couldn’t make a Guinness World Record. The man, who goes by the name CountryMan on Instagram, decided to shave his head and count every strand of hair. First, he wet his hair, then shaved it off completely with a trimmer. He carefully collected all of his fallen hair and began counting. To keep track, he used stones as a makeshift counting tool. He placed a stone on a plate for every thousand hair to help tally the final number. Later, after realizing no one had seemingly attempted something like this, he sent emails to both the Limca Book of Records and Guinness World Records. On Day 5, the Limca Book of Records turned down his request, while the Guinness World Records asked for $1,200 (approximately Rs 1,03,000) to consider his entry. So, he dropped the idea of making a world record.
