Move over, Ellen Degeneres! Dubai has broken the Guinness World Record for “the picture taken with the world’s longest selfie stick”.
The record was broken by a Dubai-based media firm called ITP Media Group at an event during which they revealed a selfie stick that measured 16.6 meters, a meter longer than the previous record holders – two Italian bloggers – who created a selfie stick measuring 15.57 meters.
ITP Live beat the record the record selfie captured by a Samsung Galaxy S8.
Samer Khallouf, the official adjudicator from Guinness World Records said: “The selfie stick adhered to the guidelines breaking the current record title. As the global authority on record-breaking, we are always happy to see such great feats in the UAE and be a part of these astonishing events.”
