150 words on one sticky note: Engineer from Dubai breaks Guinness World Record
The 29-year-old managed to fit 150 different words by hand on one sticky note, setting a new world record. To utilize every millimeter, she chose mainly three-letter words. "Since childhood, I dreamed of being a part of this."
Pushpajyothi Ravikumar, a 29-year-old engineer living in Dubai, has set a Guinness World Record after successfully handwriting 150 different words on a single sticky note. The record was officially confirmed by the Guinness World Records organization.
The task sounds simple until one tries to imagine 150 words fitting into the space of a small note—all while remaining legible. According to Guinness World Records, Ravikumar, who works as a senior cloud engineer, decided to take on the challenge to fulfill a long-held childhood dream. She has become the first holder of this specific Guinness World Record title.
"Since childhood, I watched Guinness World Records and always dreamed of being a part of this," she said. "Seeing people achieve these records inspired me deeply. One day the idea just popped up, and I decided to take the step and apply."
To fit all the words into the tiny space, Ravikumar had to find a balance between extremely small handwriting and the requirement of legibility. She chose simple, short words—mostly three-letter words in English—and experimented with different styles of tiny writing until she achieved the desired result.
Ravikumar managed to break the record on her first attempt. A video showing her meticulous writing process was posted on Instagram and has garnered nearly a million views, bringing her international recognition in recent days.
