A comedy duo have achieved the Guinness World Records title for the highest altitude stand-up comedy gig while donning gold catsuits on Mount Everest.
Ellie Gibson and Helen Thorn – or as they are better known, the Scummy Mummies – performed at 17,417ft (5,309m) at Sagarmatha, Solukhumbu, Mount Everest in Nepal to a “chilly” audience” of fellow climbers, mountaineers and “bemused” Sherpas.
