Two U.K. students show how much stationery1 a person's head can hold in a throwdown on Twitter. It's as absurd as it sounds. 
 
两名英国学生在推特上发起了一项挑战：一个人的脑袋上最多能放多少文具。光听名字你就该猜到这事儿有多荒唐了。
 
 
Apparently2, studying for exams also makes you come up with totally insane and random3 ideas. It is so for two U.K. teenagers. 
 
16-year-old Lauryn from northwest England tweeted during the weekend, “I'm trying to revise but instead I decided4 to see how many pens I can hold with my head.” This was taken as an apparent challenge by her friend Rebzy, another 16-year-old from Scotland, who tried to shove even more pens up her nose. 
 
In a series of escalating5 images, Twitter users were amazed to see how much stationery a human head can actually hold. 
 
Lauryn got a headband and stuck as many pens as she could into it, topping out at 179 pens and three rulers. But she soon bowed down to Rebzy, who ended up with a total of 242 pens stuck up her face. 
 
While fitting such a large number of writing utensils6 on one's face is certainly an insane feat7, perhaps the most impressive part of the challenge, as one Twitter user pointed8 out, is that Rebzy had 242 pens in her possession.
