Largest lederhosen
- world record
set by
Walter Sinnhofer
HENNDORF,
Austria -- Tailor Walter Sinnhofer
from Henndorf
in the province of Salzburg said it took him nearly two months
to produce a 50-kilo lederhosen which is five metres high
and four metres wide - setting the new world record for the largest
pair of lederhosen
.
Sinnhofer explained he used 77 square metres
of cow skin in the process.
Lederhosen are a traditional men’s clothing
in the mountainous regions of Austria as well as in the Swiss
Alps.
Guinness World Records officials already
acknowledged his 38-milimetre version – which he usually wears
stuck to his hat – as the smallest lederhosen on the planet
some years ago.
