The salt is to ensure that Prabhakar can't open his eyes even for a split second as it will cause a burning sensation if he does so. Prabhakar is then handed a giant hammer, which he uses to smash coconuts placed around his student Rakesh. Prabhakar and Rakesh broke the previous record set by the famous Khalsa group members Karamjit Singh and Kawaljit Singh, who had smashed 35 coconuts in one minute. Read: Spectacular!

One user wrote, "Omg how is it possible?", while another curiously asked if he's calculating the length of the person lying down and breaking the coconuts. Other martial arts records by Prabhakar Rakesh Boyilla and Prabhakar Reddy hold multiple Guinness World Records together and individually.
