Unbelievable Feat: Sword-Swallowing the Heaviest Object
Sword swallowing, an awe-inspiring skill wherein the performer guides a sword down the esophagus to the stomach, has seen astonishing variations, including swallowing unconventional objects like a Dewalt jackhammer.
In 2007, Thomas Blackthorne astounded audiences by sword-swallowing a jackhammer weighing a remarkable 83 pounds and 12 ounces. Holding the entire weight of the hammer and biting for over three seconds, Blackthorne secured a world-record acknowledgment for sword-swallowing the heaviest object.
