Indian man pulls 40-ton train with ponytail

September 19, 2012 (WEST BENGAL, India)

Sailendra Roy broke a world record on Monday by pulling a 40-ton train with nothing but his ponytail.

The 49-year-old man pulled the train engine and four empty coaches about 8 feet down the tracks in West Bengal.

Roy already has records for pulling other heavy vehicles -- like trucks and buses -- with his hair.

He is hoping to get this attempt in the Guinness Book of World Records.
