Naked rollercoaster record bid


Naked record bid /PA
More than 100 naked thrill-seekers stripped off to ride into the record books - on a rollercoaster.
A total of 102 enthusiasts bared all to take their seats on the Green Scream rollercoaster at Southend-on-Sea, Essex.
Organisers were aiming to beat a record set at Alton Towers in 2004 when 32 people rode a rollercoaster naked.
The latest record bid took place at Southend pleasure park, Adventure Island, to raise money for Southend Hospital's Bosom Pals Appeal.
Organiser Tracy Jones said: "We wanted to raise as much money as possible for this brilliant charity and give everybody who was brave enough, the chance to be part of the world record. Consequently, we had to run the Naked Rollercoaster three times."
Barbara Warner, of the Bosom Pals Appeal, said: "It takes of lot of nerve to take off all your clothes' in front of so many people and the world's media.
"We would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who was brave enough to bare all and raise such a huge amount of cash - more than £22,000 - for our vitally important cause."
