– He was dubbed India’s Iron Man and already earned his place the India Book of Records
– Amandeep Singh now dreams of entering the Guinness Book of World Records
Amandeep Singh, also known as India’s Iron Man, is a real celebrity with a repertoire of 2500 daredevil stunts that earned him a place in the India Book of Records.
But the strongman, who lifts motorbikes above his head, breaks stones with his hands, smashes metal bars across his chest and withstands being run over by a car, is not going to stop on the achieved.
The 34-year-old is now dreaming of breaking 50 separate records to leave his mark on the Guinness Book of World Records.
Describing his passion for extreme stunts Amandeep said: “People tell me that they get scared when they see me perform but I don’t know how fear looks.
In the beginning, I just exercised rigorously and did small stunts but now after nine years of practice, I don’t get hurt even if someone hits me with a bunch of iron rods. I have trained hard to be this tough.
After years of hard work, I can do more than 2500 types of stunts. I am only expanding my range as a tough stuntman. I am always willing to do what people find impossible.”
Amandeep, from Kurukshetra in Haryana, India, learnt Sikh martial arts while being a child. Now he uses his skills during performances, attracting thousands of youngsters from around the country, who come to take a look at a local celebrity and try out his self defence classes.
India’s Iron Man also dreams of establishing world-class gyms to train young Sikh men and women and promote healthy lifestyle, body building, acting and films in the Sikh community.
“I enjoy what I do. So my biggest aim is to make my society and my country proud. The only feeling I have is to perform better, give it my best shot and break as many records I can.”
