🍿 OOPS SAYS
Getting thousands of people to grill at the exact same time sounds like a triumph of logistics, and a backseat chef's absolute worst nightmare.
What actually happened
Thousands of determined and hungry South Africans descended on a sports stadium in an attempt to break the world record for the biggest cookout. Thursday's record attempt was aiming to better the 2,220 people who gathered to grill simultaneously in Ishigaki City, Japan in 2023. South Africa failed in an attempt last year, but organizers said they hoped 3,000 people would join the mass cookout this year around 500 grilling stations. A Guinness World Records adjudicator attended and laid out the rules: Everyone needs to be barbecuing simultaneously for a minimum of five minutes to be counted.
