SHARJAH, United Arab Emirates, March 4 (UPI) -- Workers at a United Arab Emirates company said they submitted four attempts to Guinness World Records, including the largest barefoot race.
Employees of manufacturing firm MSSL Mideast in Sharjah said they attempted four world records -- most people wearing paper hats, largest barefoot race, longest high five chain and largest hopping race during the weekend at Sharjah Airport International Free Zone, Gulf News reported Monday.
The company said the record attempts have been submitted to Guinness World Records for verification.
The company's workers already hold four Guinness World Records: most people polishing shoes, most people opening bottles simultaneously, longest balloon train and longest conga dance line.
