Weezer world records: new video does five things never done before
sean by Sean Adams October 8th, 2008

Original web geek rockers Weezer have broken five world records with their latest video.

The vid for new single 'Troublemaker', which went online last night, now holds the official Guinness World Records for: The Largest Air Guitar Ensemble (233 participants), The Largest Game Of Dodgeball (100, two teams of 50 people), The Longest Guitar Hero World Tour Marathon (10 hr 12 min 54 sec), The Most People In A Custard Pie Fight (120 people) and The Most People Riding On A Skateboard (22 'boarders).

And, in our best Kris Akabusi accent, here's thee wreckord-bweaken-vid-dee-oh AWOOGA! AWWRIGHT...

Weezer are currently working on their seventh LP, having released their sixth just four months ago.

DiScuss: anyone fancy trying to break all these records just to make Rivers write an angry concept song about it for the next album?
