A MAN made it into the The Guinness Book of Records when he pulled a helicopter weighing 4.97 tonnes with just his testicles in Shandong province, China.

China Press reported that Ye Wei, 39, managed to move the French-made AS365 (Dauphin 2) for about 10m, surpassing his own target of 8m during the feat several days ago.

Many netizens were in awe of his act.

Ye has his own martial art which he calls “Tai Chi Zen”, which is a combination of tai chi and Taoism wellness programmes.

Last month, Ye did a similar stunt when he pulled seven cars using his testicles for 8m.

> A man in Taiwan has not only employed an octogenarian but also chauffeurs her to and from work, Sin Chew Daily reported.

Lim Chong Qing, 49, even bought a deck chair for Wang Bu Chan, 82, to rest at his food-producing factory.

Wang, the breadwinner in her family, has to take care of her polio-stricken son who met with an accident several years ago.

She lost her job when the factory she was working in closed down last year. Lim took her in after learning about her plight.

It takes him between 60 and 80 minutes to ferry Wang to and from work daily. He gets his wife or a worker to take over his task when he is busy.

Wang was touched by Lim’s gesture, saying: “He is a good boss. Without him, it’s tough for me to continue with life.”
