Nearly 5,000 people in Thailand are
celebrating after setting a new world record for the most people dancing with
hula hoops simultaneously in one place.
Guinness World Records adjudicator Seyda Subasi-Gemici said that
4,483 people swung hula hoops to dance music for seven minutes without
interruption.
The event drew 5,000 potential hula-hoopers to an open air
stadium at Thammasat University, but 517 contestants dropped out after they
failed to keep their hoops up.
