Kharou
Fire-eating strongman show
Witness a man with indestructible teeth, neck muscles
made of iron, and a body which is unable to feel pain.

| 1. |
Lifting
221 lbs (100kg), with his teeth, an
astonishing 48 repetitions in 1 minute.

Supporting
a weight of 2229 lbs (1011 kg) on his chest

broken glass. |

In his breathtaking and gripping 40 minute show; Kharou

nail (11cm) through a 1.75" board (4cm) with
his bare hands. |

The failed attempt of
3 strongmen to drive a 6' (1.8m) steel rod,
with a diameter of 1/2" (12mm), through his

match for Kharou's mighty neck muscles, and
bends under the force. |
