A professional daredevil has demonstrated how he wows crowds with wild stunts that cause squeamish spectators to look away in horror.

Strongman Ghulam Farooq lifts bricks with his eyelids while standing on nails and can bend an iron rod using just his teeth.

The 32-year-old, who can also use his jaws to pull a minibus loaded with passengers, claims he has mastered more than 50 stunts that either threaten his life or some part of his body.

His incredible strength and fearless approach to his craft have given him the nickname "Jaws of Iron".

Ghulam, from Pakistan, said: I love doing stunts and this is the only thing I am good at that is why I made it my profession. It is really a cakewalk for me."

It was nearly a decade ago that the father-of-four, got hooked on stunts after watching only action-packed programmes on TV.

He pursued his passion and was mentored by a veteran stuntman, Ustad Sher Jan Baloch.

Ghulam is quite confident in his skills and is hoping to find stardom.

He said: "I can do better stunts than the stuntmen do on TV shows. I am just looking for a platform.

"I am the best stuntman in whole of Pakistan. No one else than me can do these death-defying stunts with ease.

"Be it a truck run over my head or lifting four kilograms of brick with my eyelids, I can perform such stunts without even a scratch."

Ghulam, who has opened a training program where he helps youngsters learn stunts, said his ultimate wish is to become the strongest man in the world.

For his next stunt he plans on pulling two planes with his teeth.

He said: "I have tried most of the deadly stunts by now but my aim is to pull two airplanes with my jaw. I want to create a Guinness Book of World Records.

"That is my dream. It is not always easy but the amount of hard work I do, I am sure I would soon achieve my goal."
