'King Tooth' Unleashes His Potential
26th October 2023
Malaysia’s rich tapestry extends far beyond its cultural diversity; it’s also packed with incredibly talented people. In the annals of extraordinary human achievement, few stories captivate the imagination, such as Valu Rathakrishnan or ‘King Tooth’. Back in October 2003, Valu achieved the title of ‘Heaviest Train Pulled by Teeth’ and got the nickname ‘King Tooth’ after using his teeth to pull two KTM commuter trains with sheer determination and a unique, ancient practice.
Valu managed to use his teeth to pull not one, but two KTM commuter trains with the combined weight of the train amounting to a staggering 260.8 tonnes. With enough determination, he managed to cover a distance of 4.2 meters.
However, Valu’s story was far from over. In 2007, he shattered his record, surpassing the limits of his already remarkable strength. This time, he pulled a train that weighed over 291 tonnes for 2.8 meters at the Old Kuala Lumpur Railway Station.
Beneath the surface of his incredible strength, he revealed the secret. Valu attributed his exceptional strength to an ancient Indian form of meditation, a practice imparted to him by his guru when he was a mere 14 years old. Under the guidance of his mentor, he learned to focus and channel his energy, directing it to a single part of his body.
