JAKARTA - Not long ago, a man from Japan carried out a reckless action that managed to steal the public's attention. He managed to record his name in the history of world records. Not only challenging adrenaline, but also forcing the body to withstand an extraordinary spicy sensation.

Takamasa Suzuki managed to eat 391 grams of wasabi in just one minute. An extraordinary achievement that makes many people dumbfounded and feel dizzy just by imagining it.

This kind of extreme challenge is nothing foreign in a record-breaking world. Many people have the guts and extraordinary courage to challenge their physical and mental boundaries.

Actions such as eating in large quantities, eating spicy foods, or solving challenges as soon as possible, have been done a lot to list names in world record books. This time, wasabi, a food ingredient known for its very high level of susceptibility, became the material chosen for the challenge.

Reported by VOI from a video upload on the official Instagram account @guinnessworldrecords on February 18, this record-breaking action caught the attention of many people. In the short video, Takamasa Suzuki can be seen persistently eating wasabi in a very short time. Not only one or two bribes, but he spent the entire Wasabi bowl containing 391 grams of wasabi in just one minute.

This record breaking was carried out on stage, with just one bowl of wasabi and a glass of water as a "battle tool" to solve the challenge. Although at first Suzuki's face looked confused and had a bit of trouble, he didn't stop.

He accelerated his hand movements and continued to put wasabi in his mouth without stopping. Shortly thereafter, his face, which at first looked confused, turned into full of enthusiasm as he got closer to this achievement.

After one minute had passed, Takamasa Suzuki managed to finish all the wasabi in his bowl, weighing a total of about 391 grams, according to an official report from Guinness World Records. When he raised his hand as a sign of victory, the audience who saw him felt shocked and not a few felt a spicy sensation just by imagining what he had just done.

Interestingly, the record-breaking was not carried out in Japan, which is known for its washabi production, but in Milan, Italy. This record-breaking event also took place on a television show titled Lo Show Dei Record, which was broadcast on February 29, 2024.

On stage, Takamasa Suzuki received an award in the form of a charter and official medal from Guinness World Records, which was handed over directly by the Guinness who attended to witness this extraordinary action.

However, despite Suzuki's actions in the spotlight of the world, many netizens are worried about the health impact of the challenge. Some people expressed their worries through comments on the Guinness World Records Instagram upload, imagining how Suzuki's body would respond to the extreme spicy feeling, especially when he had to go to the toilet afterward.

The spicy taste of the extraordinary strong wasabi can certainly cause an extraordinary feeling of pain, both in the mouth and in the stomach.

However, Suzuki did not seem afraid of the challenge. He managed to set a new impressive record, proving that his courage and determination were unshakable. It's not just about beating the spicy feeling, but also about achieving something extreme and challenging that has never been done before.
