Robert Rubio wanted to be in the Guinness Book of World Records for the most piercing needles in a body at one time.
Rubio had already set the record in 2008 with 900 needles, but someone surpassed it with a record of 1197 needles.
So, Rubio set his sights on 2,000 needles. Then, during the process, he upped it to 2,100 needles.
Rubio says he did it for his mother, so she could see her son's name in the record books. He says she also thinks he's pretty strange.
"Well, she thinks I'm stupid but she still loves me," Rubio said.
