Artist from Jaipur bags Guinness record by making world’s smallest wooden spoon! Watch

 

Jaipur: An artist from Rajashthan’s Jaipur has made the world’s smallest wooden spoon and has bagged a Guinness record for himself. Navratan Prajapati created the spoon merely 2mm in height and 0.7 inches long. For perspective, it is smaller than a person’s fingernail and is not capable of holding even two grains of sugar.

Taking to Twitter, Guinness World Records shared the video of Parajapati creating the spoon. The video showed the artist using different equipment to carve the spoon from a piece of wood. At one point, it also showed Parajapati using his unique creation to pick up tiny pieces of food. ‘New record: Smallest wooden spoon – 2 mm (0.7 inches) made by Navratan Prajapati Murtikar (India)’, the caption read.

Parajapati created the record on June 22, 2022, but Guinness World Record shared the video on its official Twitter account on Thursday. Since then, the video has accumulated more than 8,200 views and over 15,000 likes. It has also garnered various reactions. ‘I dare you to eat with this spoon’, jokingly commented one user.

Meanwhile, talking to Guinness World Record, Prajapati said, ‘Guinness World Records is the Kohinoor diamond in records and after receiving it I feel like wearing the most magnificent crown on my head’. He also revealed that he wants to develop a miniature craft museum in the future. According to a blog by GWR, Prajapati is a sculptor of marble statues. He also received the Limca World Record certificate for making the world’s smallest functional lantern in 2006. Notably, prior to Prajapati, the record for the world’s smallest spoon was held by Gowrishankar Gummadidhala. The artist from Telangana made a wooden spoon that was 4.5 mm long in 2021.
