EO Chat-Superman Celebration 08 Day 4-Guinness World Record
Sorry for the shaky vid, I had to hold my camera up high over the crowd and try to keep everything in frame. Metropolis put itself on the map again today, 6/15/08, as the city had Guinness there to record and take a pic of the largest gathering of people dressed as Superman in one place. They needed at least 100 people, they had 122! They all had to stand in place for 5 minutes for it to be official, they did it!
