“If you can Dream it; you can do it; so keep dreaming and keep doing!”says Thaneswar Guragai during the filming in Kathmandu, Nepal. Just days later; a devastating earthquake hit the region and left an impact of not only those on the ground, but the millions who came together worldwide to offer support and donations to all who were affected. Much work is still being done to recover the lives of all affected on the ground across Kathmandu, and locations such as even the exact backdrops seen in the video are now unrecognisable from being ruined during the earthquake. Thaneswar, like many in Nepal is very proud of his nation and he has been working extensively over the last few months to offer his own support and positive actions on the ground. What many people may not realise when they meet him is that he is quite well-known all around the world from having traveled to different countries and appeared on national tv shows. He has honed a long list of quirky and rather unique skills as part of his talent repertoire and he is a multiple world record holder with an array of fun records to his name. From squeezing through toilet seats and tennis racquets, to balancing heavy items on his face. And as displayed in the video above, he has also mastered some very original basketball tricks including spinning for long duration on his finger, on his elbow, on his nose, on his chin whilst spinning the ball on a toothbrush (must be seen to be believed!!!) and on his toe. When asked about his long term ambitions he told us: “I want to request for the same level of support and recognition as I get from people all around the world. I have achieved so many world records now and I want to continue and keep setting myself challenges because I enjoy it. I have strived through challenges since very young, and I love it!” During filming, Thaneswar managed to set yet another brand new world record to add to his others, and this time for ‘The Longest time spinning a basketball on his toe’ he did so for 20.87 seconds which just beat the previous official record set at around 19 seconds. We would advise people to try and attempt some of the skills Thaneswar displays with the basketball… it really isn’t as easy as he makes it look.
