Facial hair enthusiasts claimed to have set a new world record for longest beard chain during an event in Wyoming on Friday, the Casper Star-Tribune reports.

《卡斯珀明星論壇報》報導,鬍子的愛好者們聲稱週五在懷俄明州一場活動期間締造了最長鬍鬚鏈的世界新紀錄。

Participants gathered at Gaslight Social, a bar in Casper, where they stood side by side and clipped their beards together to create a hairy chain that was measured at 150 feet long, according to the newspaper. That’s more than double the Guinness World Record of 62 feet, 6 inches, set in Germany in 2007.

根據該報,參與者聚集在卡斯珀的「煤氣燈社交」酒吧,他們在那裡並排站,並把他們的鬍鬚剪在一起,形成一條測量起來有150英尺長的毛茸茸鏈條。那比2007年於德國創下的62英尺6 英寸金氏世界紀錄高出一倍多。

To participate, people needed to sport a beard at least 8 inches long, according to the Star-Tribune.

根據這家《明星論壇報》,民眾需要留有至少8英寸長的鬍鬚才能參與。

The event occurred on the sidelines of the National Beard and Moustache Championships, which took place Saturday at the city’s Ford Wyoming Center. (AP)
