People do very odd things for the chance to get into the Guinness book of records. A group of police officers in Dubai recently came up with an idea that could drag them happily into the famed Gunnies book.
The group numbering 77 females decided to beat the record that was set by an all-male team the previous year by pulling a 372,142-pound Boeing 777-300ER a distance of over 300 feet.
The women, participating in the annual Dubai Fitness Challenge, worked together to pull the plane the Guinness-required 328 feet and earned the official world record for heaviest aircraft pulled over 328 feet by a team.
A Guinness World Records adjudicator was on hand to witness the event and presented a certificate to Maj.-Gen. Abdullah Khalifa Al Merri, commander-in-chief of Dubai Police.
Congratulations to the team.
