At just 14 years old, Aaryan Shukla, a “human calculator” from India, amazed everyone by breaking six Guinness World Records in one day! Last year, he made headlines when he became the fastest person to mentally add 50 five-digit numbers before a live audience. He completed this incredible task in only 25.19 seconds, which is about one addition every half second!

After this impressive achievement, Aaryan was invited to Dubai by Guinness World Records to face an even tougher challenge. In one amazing day, he broke six records, including:

– The fastest time to mentally add 100 four-digit numbers
– The fastest time to mentally add 200 four-digit numbers
– The fastest time to add 50 five-digit numbers
– The fastest time to divide a 20-digit number by a 10-digit number
– The fastest time to multiply 10 sets of 2 five-digit numbers
– The fastest time to multiply 10 sets of 2 eight-digit numbers

Aaryan shared his daily routine with Guinness World Records, saying, “Daily practice is super important for competitions, so I practice for about 5-6 hours each day.”

He also explained how he thinks while solving math problems. “Many calculations happen really quickly in my head, so I can’t explain what goes on inside my brain; I just do it naturally. It’s so fast that I don’t have time to think, I just calculate,” he shared. To help him stay calm and focused, he practices yoga.

Aaryan’s mother noted that he has loved numbers since he was very young. “He liked studying and playing with numbers. At age 6, he started practicing mental calculations, and he was really good at it. We began researching more about it. By age 8, he participated in an international competition and won medals and trophies, which was amazing!” she said.
