Students at Alexander Central School tried to break three world records today, securing their own legacy in the Guinness Book of World Records.
The effort was the culmination of a class assignment from Miss Colleen McNamara for her fifth-grade class. The students researched potential world records and wrote essays on why their records should be attempted.
The records attempted were the most people doing sit-ups simultaneously, the longest pop-n-lock arm wave and the most high-fives in one minute.
These photos are from the sit-up attempt. We don't yet have the results of the attempts.
