A US freshman named Scott Damerow cracked the Guinness World Record for "Most Eggs Crushed with the Head" when he smashed 142 eggs in one minute.

美国大一学生斯科特-达梅罗在一分钟内用脑门砸破142个鸡蛋，刷新了“用头砸破最多鸡蛋”的吉尼斯世界纪录。

Damerow moved down a table, breaking each shell on it as a live audience cheered him on. “My head felt pretty numb after that,” he said afterwards. “I didn’t even realize I got cut by an egg shell.”

达梅罗在现场观众的喝彩下，沿着桌子将上面的鸡蛋逐一砸破。他事后说：“我砸完之后头都麻木了，甚至都没察觉到鸡蛋壳将头划伤了。”

Egg-crushing world records have also been set with hands, wrists, and more unlikely body parts. In 2009, a man in Italy used his toes to crush 49 eggs in one minute.
