two British twins grew a 1,296kg squash and got exactly one week of joy before a guy with 35 years of practice ruined it
World's biggest pumpkin record broken twice in one week
Ron Wallace, a 60-year-old grower from Rhode Island, set a new world record for the heaviest pumpkin with a 1,431.5kg (3,156 lb) squash, weighed at the Southern New England Giant Pumpkin Weigh Off and confirmed by Guinness. Just a week earlier, British twins Ian and Stuart Paton of Lymington, Hampshire, had claimed the record at 1,296kg (2,857 lb) — the first Britons ever to hold the title. Wallace's gourd beat theirs by nearly 200kg. He took home $3,500 locally and says he may skip next season.
