Chef sets record for dipping hands in boiling oil
A Thai chef has set a record for dipping his hands in boiling hot cooking oil.
Deep fried chicken specialist Kann Trichan has earned a Guinness World Record for pulling 20 pieces of chicken out of 480 degree oil in a minute - and he avoids harm each time he puts his hands in the boiling hot substance.
He said: "Now I can fry rice, chicken, and many things with just my bare hands.
"When I put my hands into the oil it feels hot but it doesn't burn or blister my skin."
Kann only found out about his special talent when a squirrel knocked a mango into his wok when he was cooking.
He added: "The fat flew everywhere, all over my head, arms, hands. It should have seriously hurt me.
"I remember looking in the mirror, expecting to see blisters and red blotches, but there was nothing."
