Guinness World Records (GWR) took to Instagram to share a video of a man’s incredible balancing act. A video by GWR shows him balancing 319 wine glasses on his head and also slowly dancing. This intriguing act is, however, not the only thing that has captured the attention of the people. After creating the record, the man simply drops the glasses on the floor for them to shatter.

The clip opens to show Valaoritis with several glasses on his head. Another person, perched on a table, is seen adding more glasses for Valaoritis to finish. Despite the increasing number of tumblers, he goes on to balance them perfectly. Once done, he doesn’t wait for others to take off the glasses one by one but simply moves his head. With this little movement, the tower of glasses comes crashing down and shatters.

The post was shared a day ago. Since then, it has collected more than 3.9 lakh views. The share has also accumulated nearly 25,000 likes. People posted varied comments while reacting. While some were surprised by the record, others claimed they could achieve it too. A few also took the route of hilarity while responding.
