Iron Man

Meet the man who eats iron nails, ceramics and glass for survival!

London: Yunsheng Long, nicknamed as 'Incredible Human Munching Machine', has been swallowing sharp metal nails for more than three decades now.

 

The 49-year-old man said that his favorite diet was iron nails fresh from the factory, with a little trace of oil on them like a salad dressing with just a glass of water and there is nothing that he cannot eat and digest because his stomach is as strong as concrete and throat like iron, the Daily Express reported.

 

A circus performer trained him to eat the metal nails when he was just 18-years-old boy and according to him there is no one else in China today, who can do what he does.

 

The miner often performs at fetes and country fairs and up till now he has eaten more than 9.5kg of ceramics, nails and glass in one sitting.
