Vloggers set Guinness World Record for most selfies taken in one hour

Yes, this is what the world has come to...

Two American vloggers broke the Guinness World Record for ‘most selfies taken in one hour’ over the weekend.

Mark E. Miller and Ethan Hethcote went to South Beach in Miami, on a mission to get as many people as possible to pose with them for a photo. The record attempt was made to promote the #missionsmile campaign which aims to get people smiling through acts of kindness.

The couple, who have a popular Youtube Channel, took an astounding 355 selfies in 60 minutes. That is a lot of duckfacing and cheesy grins. They smashed the previous World Record of just 50 taken in an hour.

Guinness World Records have surprising strict rules when it comes to selfie-taking:

"The way this works is it's not just one person taking photos of themselves, but they have to have a different person in each photo that they take," explained Official Guinness World Records adjudicator, Kimberly Partrick.

"The challenge is about getting engagement from the crowd wherever you are."

So do you think you could beat the current record or are you sick to the teeth of selfies?
