Pitbull set a Guinness World Record in London on Friday for the “largest gathering of people wearing bald caps.” The rapper, along with some 22,141 fans who showed up to Hyde Park in bald caps, set the record at the BST Festival where Pitbull headlined.
“I’m speechless. Who would have thought a first-generation Cuban would be record-breaking and record-making?” Pitbull said when accepting the award, per The Guardian .
While Pitbull is bald, he donned a bald cap himself. As Will Munford, an official adjudicator for Guinness World Records told the outlet, Pitbull had “to wear a bald cap to be in the record number” as the record was not for “largest gathering of bald people.”
Volunteers numbered to 400 to “individually check people” when they entered and onsite. Plus, there was “drone footage with 42 counters backstage,” Munford said to tally the record.
