Have an Amazing Story?
With a NEW Record of 163 Pegs!
His name is Kelvin Mercado is one of our featured record holders at Ripley’s Believe it or Not! , for pinning the most clothespins to his face!
Peg Man’s Exclusive Photo Shoot
We like Kelvin so much we flew him to Orlando, Florida to Ripley’s headquarters to have a full day photo shoot with him. And now we have some fantastic photos and time lapses of Kelvin’s process of clipping the pins on his face! It was here where he set his previous record of 161 pins.
He broke the record again soon after, pushing the number to 163 pins at an exclusive Ripley’s Books event!
Particularly Elastic Skin
Kelvin’s skin is slightly more elastic than average which makes it easier for him to stick so many pegs on it at one. The pins cover his face so completely that he uses the same pattern because he can’t see once the pins start to cover most of his face!
Don’t Think It Hurts Enough Already?
It hurts, but Kelvin now seeks not only be known for the most amount of pegs pinned to his face but to be the first to pin THOUSANDS of these clothes pegs on his entire body!
