Croatia's Biggest Jeans is a new Guiness World Record

Description:

A pair of jeans the size of six tennis courts, stitched together from thousands donated for charity, should be recognised by Guinness World Records as the biggest anywhere, organisers say.
"We've made the world's largest pair of jeans," the Cockta Jeans Fashion project said on its website.
"People were bringing in their old jeans... and sponsors were immediately giving money for humanitarian purposes," project head Boris Juric said.
The denims were put on display in Croatia's capital Zagreb over the weekend after they were assembled from 8,023 unwanted pairs and auctioned off over the past few months.
They have a leg length of 45 metres and a total width of 34 metres and were sewn together in a local factory.
For each pair of donated jeans, the project paid seven kunas ($1.60) to a local association providing therapy to disabled people.
