A teacher has grown a record breaking pumpkin weighing the same as 12 fully grown men.
Travis Gienger grew the massive 1,161kg gourd in his home town of Anoka, Minnesota, before transporting it across the US to a pumpkin growing competition in Northern California where his produce was certified.
The pumpkin broke the record for the heaviest ever in the US and won him $23,040 (£20,770) at the 2022 Safeway World Championship Pumpkin Weigh-Off.
