"I started practicing coin stacking to attempt the record motivated by my friends and family after knowing about the record from social media," he told UNB.

Ayman broke the previous record of stacking 71 coins into a tower in a minute held by another Bangladeshi, Nusrat Jahan Nipa, from Barishal.

"After a long preparation when I perfected the skill, I applied to break the previous record on February 25, this year through the official website of Guinness World Book of Records. On March 17 they approved my application and asked to send the video which I did following their instruction. On June 12 they announced the result through mail," said Ayman.
