The London Underground has 272 stations. At least, it did when a group of teenagers decided to ride them all at once.
There had been two similar attempts before, both of which were successful.
A group of teenagers managed to travel around all 272 London Underground stations in 18 hours, 8 minutes and 13 seconds, which was recognized as a world record.
A group of eight 16-17 year olds set a world record by riding around all the London Underground stations and ending up in
Guinness Book of Records.
They improved their previous result by 1 hour and 56 minutes.
A mandatory condition for the record to be counted was visiting each station, but it was not necessary to leave the train.
It is worth noting that the result would have been even better if there had not been a power outage during the trip.
There was also an unplanned stop of 10 trains, a delay in the schedule and the loss of a wallet by one of the participants in the race.
Later, the participants admitted that the most interesting part was planning the route.
And thanks to their record, they managed to visit parts of London where they had never been before.
