	Brits claim new record for under water ironing	39082 Reads

A British team of extreme ironists have snatched the record from under the noses of the Antipodean rivals to claim the world record for the most people ironing under water at the same time, with 86 pressed their garnments in Gloucestershire.

The heroic effort raised more than £6,000 for the RNLI and was organised by Gareth Lock, Morag Ward and John Turnock of Yorkshire Divers.

You can check out some more pics in Dive Magazine.

We await the response from our Kiwi and Aussie counterparts, who over a period of two years had extreme ironing fans gripped by their one-upmanship in the under water ironing style. The Aussies previously held the record, with 72 ironists.

Fantastic effort! More than double the previous, and not in blue, clear, warm water but an English quarry mid-Winter. Excellent stuff!
