He successfully equalled the previous record of United Kingdom’s Jack Harris, who also balanced 18 eggs in May 2020.

“You need to have a high level of focus when attempting such a record which is difficult to achieve,” Sadeq told the records site while revealing that he practised four times a week in preparation for his attempt.
