The smallest label in the world - it is «Nothing is impossible» («Nothing is impossible")
Short Graham (Graham Short) from Britain's smallest inscription engraved in the world on the edge of a razor blade. The inscription «Nothing is impossible» («Nothing is impossible") has a length of only a tenth of a millimeter, and it can be seen only through a 400-fold microscope.
To accomplish such an incredible job, Graham took more than seven months, during which it was flawed about 150 blades - one inaccurate move and all the work for nothing. So Graham resorted to some tricks. For example, he worked only at night, when the vibration from the traffic is minimal. He also tied his hands to a chair with a belt in order to prevent accidental movement. Moreover, he used a stethoscope to listen to your heart and do the finishing touches in between his strikes. In a relaxed state of his heart rate can drop to 30 beats per minute - a daily 10-kilometer-long workout in the pool were not in vain.
Now the blade is put up for auction with a starting price of about $ 75 thousand.
