Ilker Yilmaz poured milk into his hand, snorted it up his nose and squirted it out of his left eye, crashing the record set by Canadian Mike Moraal, which was a paltry 8.745 feet in 2001, Sky News reported Thursday.

"I'm happy and proud that I can get Turkey in the record book even if it's for milk squirting," he told Sky News. Yilmaz said he's been squirting stuff out of his eye for years, but he only recently learned there was a world record for milk squirting. "When I saw a previous Guinness attempt on TV, I thought, maybe, I could do that too," he said.
