In one such clip, Junguk Lee from South Korea could be seen throwing paper planes at watermelons to create a world record. While the clip shared on Facebook testifies Lee’s aiming skills, it has also left many confused on the category which the act should be put in.

The little over three-minute-long video starts by showing Lee with multiple paper planes in his hand standing in front of watermelons. As the timer begins, he hurriedly starts throwing the pointed panes on the melons, perfectly piercing them. Although he misses a few, he is finally able to set the Guinness World Records of throwing the maximum number of paper planes in one minute.
