Pizzaiolos from across Naples, Italy gathered to go for a very delicious Guinness World Record.

On May 18th, 250 Italian pizza-makers assembled in shifts of 100 to create, assemble, and bake the world's longest pizza. Per Guinness:

The pizza was running from the US Consulate (Repubblica Square) to Castel dell'Ovo along the picturesque bay of the Caracciolo's seafront. 250 proud masters of traditional Neapolitan pizza had gathered from all over the world and as far as Australia, Asia and Japan for the record attempt. 2,000 kg of flour, 1,600 kg of tomatoes, 2,000 of 'fiordilatte' cheese, 200 litres of olive oil, from strictly local suppliers, was the recipe for success. 5 wood fired portable ovens, each constructed on 4 wheels, had been specially created for the event. Each oven, controlled by about 25 people, had four openings, two to allow the pizza to enter in an out and the other two for the wood supply.
