It is normally home to rugby players but on Sunday 146 men dropped their trousers at Harlequins Rugby Club in a world record beating stunt.

The trouser-less men gathered at the Scoop in Twickenham in an attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the largest gathering of people wearing underpants.

The stunt was organised by glossy women’s magazine Cosmopolitan in aid of the Everyman Campaign to raise awareness and funds for testicular and prostate cancer.



Guinness World Records adjudicator Justine Bourdariat said: “This was one of the most unusual Guinness World Records I have had the pleasure of judging.

"It’s great to see so many men stripping off for such a good cause.”

The picture will appear in the August issue of Cosmopolitan on sale of July 9.
