Civic and community leaders in Castleblaney in Co Monaghan are celebrating a unique but quirky second world record within two years.
Nine hundred and five people from the area smashed the record for the biggest number of people dressed up as characters from the Flintstones in one place.
The record was confirmed by Guinness official observer, London-based Nadine Causey.
Organisers of the Muckno Mania Festival also earned a place in the Guinness Book of World Records in 2008 when they managed to get a record number of people dressed up as smurfs together.
They say Castleblaney is now one of the few towns globally with two world records to its name.
