Guinness Certificate
The certificate for the July attempt has now arrived 5 months after submitting the material to Guinness. Hopefully I can add a fourth on Comic Relief Day.

Re: Guinness Certificate
How does it compare with the ones shown here?
(Favourably time-wise, of course, but I was more interested in an aesthetic comparison )

Re: Guinness Certificate
It is a new design but pretty similar to Hakan's except instead of a gold hologram it is silver. I tried to take a pic with my phone but it wouldn't send over bluetooth !!

Re: Guinness Certificate
I wouldn't say my hologram is gold - the appearance varies wildly with ambient light, angle, etc. Probably it's the same, I'd say!joy54 wrote:It is a new design but pretty similar to Hakan's except instead of a gold hologram it is silver.

Re: Guinness Certificate
Mine does go gold as well it depends on the reflection of light but its silver when viewed normally.

Re: Guinness Certificate
Ah ok it is probably the same then. My first certificate also had an offical Guinness Work Records stamp with the date it was issued on the back did anyone else get that?

Re: Guinness Certificate
No, no stamps on my mine... I guess the hologram is cheaper for them in the long run...

If you break the record on Comic Relief Day then Guinness will have to design a bigger certificate in order to fit everybodys name on!joy54 wrote:The certificate for the July attempt has now arrived 5 months after submitting the material to Guinness.

Re: Guinness Certificate
I wonder if there is a limit. Because there are mass attempts that occur like largest number of people jumping simultaneously etc. I doubt they can fit everyone's name on the certificate and probably just issue one to the event organiser...greatkingrat wrote:If you break the record on Comic Relief Day then Guinness will have to design a bigger certificate in order to fit everybodys name on!joy54 wrote:The certificate for the July attempt has now arrived 5 months after submitting the material to Guinness.

Re: Guinness Certificate
Well they are these days due to saturation attempts.
Back in my day they were only being given out every two years or so ...
