Romanians breaks arm-wrestling record winning against 1,000 in one day

Romania's arm wrestling champion Ion Oncescu broke the world record, defeating 1,000 opponents on Sunday (February 12 ) in a shopping center in Bucharest. The skandenberg marathon lasted for eight hours and won Oncescu a Guiness Book record for the number of victories in a single day. Last year, Oncescu, nicknamed Iron Man, won against 500 opponents, increasing from 300 in 2010 and 100 in 2009. The Romanian is a world champion in skandenberg for both hands. He was included in March 2011 in the World's Hall of Fame "The 50 Greatest Armwrestlers In History". editor@romania-insider.com (photo source: the World of Wrestling)
