 Mr Garland said while the group had sore arms they were happy to hold the record and raise money in the process.

   "We battled through the rain and the cold but eventually got there. All the boys enjoyed a round of beers when we got home," Mr Garland said.

   So far they have raised $4500 for the Westpac Rescue Helicopter service.

   Mr Garland's next world record attempt will be as part of a cricket match between two teams made up of local police officers.
