Glasgow students have broken a Guinness World Record by taking part in a marathon selfie session.

The Glasgow Caledonian University students set themselves the challenge of taking as many selfies as possible in an hour - and their posing prowess has helped them smash a Guinness World Record.

The idea came from a group of professional support services at the university and the Students' Association during discussions about Freshers' Week activities.

The Students' Association vice president for activities Lee Goodfellow acted as a selfie-snapper for the challenge.

The previous record for most selfies by an individual stood at 421 - and the Glasgow students managed a massive 657 selfies during the challenge which took place as part of Freshers' Week on September 17.

A certificate for their efforts was presented to Lee and all the students who took part can also apply to the Guinness World records to claim their own certificate.
