US man hangs 710 baubles from his beard to set Guinness World Record. Watch | Trending

Chrmas is just a few days away, and people have already started gearing up for the festive season. While some are decorating their homes with lights and Chrmas trees, others are buying gifts for friends and family. Amid this, a man from the United States has attracted netizens’ attention after he attached hundreds of multi-coloured baubles, decorative balls hung on a Chrmas tree, to his beard.“Most beard baubles in a beard. 710 Joel Strasser,” wrote Guinness World Records while sharing the video on Instagram. The video shows Joel Strasser attaching 710 wearable multi-coloured baubles to his beard one one, and when he finishes, his beard looks nothing short of a decorated Chrmas tree. The record-keeping organisation reported that the entire process is tedious and requires much patience. Joel took two and a half hours to attach colourful jingling balls to his beard and more than an hour to remove them.However, this is not the first time Joel has sported a well-ornamented beard. In December 2019, he broke the world record for the first time attaching 302 baubles to his beard. He has since sharpened his beard bauble technique and has re-broken his own record every Chrmas. “Joel first broke the record in 2019 using 302 baubles, then in 2020 with 542 baubles, and a third time in 2021 with 686 baubles,” reported Guinness World Records in a blog.Watch the video below:
