If slicing cucumbers with a chainsaw wasn't enough, he did it while being blindfolded. Bir Khalsa has achieved the death-defying feat of slicing the most number of cucumbers with a huge chainsaw. A video posted on the official Instagram page of Guinness World Records, shows the Indian man dressed in a black and orange dress, slicing cucumbers, one after another, held in another person's mouth.
