Mohammed Khurshid Hussain, 23, wrote a 103-character sentence in just 47 seconds after practicing his technique for six hours a day, the International Business Times reported.
If this amazing feat is confirmed by the Guinness World Records organisers, he will smash the record previously set by an Indian in 2008 at a time of one minute and 33 seconds.
They were both made to use their nose to type the sentence: 'Guinness World Records has challenged me to to type this sentence using my nose in the fastest time.'
Read the Daily Mail report below:
It took Mr Hussain, from the southern city of Hyderabad, months of training to break through the 53-second barrier after reaching it at least twice.
During his attempts the hobbyist, his hands tied behind his back, was surrounded by crowds of fans with stopwatches and an extra-large monitor attached to the keyboard.
Videos and ecstatic press conferences after the attempts have been posted on his Youtube feed.
Mr Hussain already holds the Guinness World Record for typing the entire English alphabet – although that feat was achieved with his fingers.
He achieved a time of 3.43 seconds during the challenge in February 2012, which was held in front of several journalists in a public event his home city.
He told the International Business Times: 'If you want to set a record, every millisecond counts. I typed with one eye closed, as it is difficult otherwise to locate the keys.'
It is far from the most bizarre typing feat to be recorded by Guinness.
