On November 11, 2022, participants at Beard Team USA’s 2022 National Beard and Moustache Championships Pre-Party lined up and clipped their facial hair together in an attempt to set a new Guinness World Record for Longest Bead Chain. The previous record was set in December 2007 in Germany at a length of 62 ft 6 in. This attempt more than doubles that with a length of 150 ft 8in, with 69 men participating.
On November 3, 2023, this record was broken again on the pier next to Joe’s Crab Shack in Daytona Beach, FL.
THE NEW WORLD RECORD is 195' 3" with 89 participants.
Beard Team USA is proud to have organized such a fun and successful record breaking event. We will be sure to have more events like this in the years to come. If you have any questions regarding this attempt please contact us here.
