Kathmandu, Nepal — October 1, 2026
Nepali memory expert Bijaya Shahi has achieved a Guinness World Records title by memorizing a sequence of 70 objects in just one minute.
According to Guinness World Records, Shahi accomplished the feat in Kathmandu, Bagmati Province, Nepal, on May 27, 2026, setting the record for the longest sequence of objects memorized in one minute.
The remarkable achievement required Shahi to commit 70 objects to memory within a highly limited time frame. Guinness World Records notes that such feats rely on rapid mental techniques, including visualization and association, methods commonly developed and refined by competitive memory athletes through years of training.
Following the one-minute memorization period, Shahi was given only 15 minutes to rearrange the objects in the required sequence. With no margin for error, the challenge demanded intense concentration, speed and accuracy.
Shahi’s achievement places a Nepali name on the global record platform and highlights the potential of memory training, mental techniques and cognitive skills.
