A group of Australian medical students claim to have broken the world record for the most number of people spooning simultaneously.
Spooning, where one person wraps their arms around another in the manner of spoons bundled together, is a common form of affection.
Zoe Lambert and Jemmima Jones, first year medical students from Fairlight and Avalon Beach respectively, are on track to be named world record holders, for spooning, the Daily Telegraph reported.
They were among 1,108 people have spooned in a row for five minutes, as part of the 2013 Australian Medical Students Association (AMSA) conference on the Gold Coast last week.
A justice of the peace certified the mass spooning as the world's largest, and final certification from Guinness World Records is all that's needed to make it be official.
