Though his Tallest Pencil Tower and Most Pencils Held in Hand feats were impressive, one record stands alone, measuring 9.8 OMGs on the Internet Impact Scale. This record is Most Pencils Fit In Mouth At Once.

Dinesh, or "Maximouth" as he is now known, crammed 92 sticks of wood and graphite into his cavernous maw. Of particular distinction is his placement technique: his initial group insertion of approximately 85 pencils was swiftly followed by individual additions on all sides of his gob.
