Joris Goens from Veurne for tenth time Belgian Champion Belleman

According to the jury, Goens was not the loudest, but he was the easiest to understand. And he has his own way of taking care of his voice: “Of course I eat a lot of honey. That’s just me, a sandwich with honey in the morning. And drink water before calling. Not chilled but at room temperature “, it sounds.

Goens is 62 and has been the official bell man of his home city for 17 years. Joris’s voice was once measured, when he still clocked in at 113 decibels. Similar to a pop concert or a low-flying plane.
