A group of Taiwan Chi Kung masters on Sunday claimed to have created a new world record -- this time by using their penises to move a heavy truck with 80 people on board.
Two groups of Chi Kung masters with three members per team attached their penises to an 11-ton truck loaded with some 80 people and pulled it a meter.
This followed a similar episode last week when the same group of Chi Kung masters pulled an 11-tonne truck some 30 centimeters with their penises.
The driver in Sunday's foray had to slam on the breaks to stop the truck from storming into a crowd of hundreds of spectators in downtown Taipei.
"This is a warm-up for our plan of pulling a passenger airplane," said Chi Kung master Tu Chin-sheng, the owner of a martial arts house.
He said practitioners had to practice the martial art by attaching objects weighing up to 200 kilograms to their penises.
Tu said thousands of apprentices have benefited from what he called "99 Shen Kung (Miracle Feat)" -- a type of Chi Kung -- since he opened his first martial arts center 25 years ago.
"Practicing Chi Kung certainly helps enhance men's sexual ability," Tu told AFP last week.
However he warned people against practicing Chi Kung without the assistance of a qualified master -- TAIPEI (AFP)
