Proving that age is not at all a limit or a barrier, a 53-year-old man from Tamil Nadu has set a new record for rappelling down blindfolded from a whopping 155-feet rock. This feat of him made him get a place in to the Unico Book of World Records. The man in question is SV Ramana, a bank employee. He rappelled down blindfolded from 155-feet rock at Malaipattu mountain in Sriperumbudur in Kanchipuram last month.

SV Ramana, who works at a bank, has been receiving training in rappeling for several years. He always aspired to do something different to inspire the youngsters to join military service.

“I am working for Punjab National Bank in Chennai. Age is not a limit for anything… I dedicate this achievement to the uniform servicemen of the country,” Ramana said. Ramana entered the Unico Book of World Records on January 30, 2021. The Unico world record adjudicator R Sivaraman has certified Ramana with the title.
