Not to be outdone by its Broadway counterpart, the West End staging of Monty Python's Spamalot broke the record for the world's largest coconut orchestra April 23 in Trafalgar Square.
The Broadway and Shubert Alley crowd set the record March 22, 2006 as 1,789 fans banged complimentary pairs of coconut halves together to the tune of the familiar Monty Python anthem "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" to celebrate the show's one year anniversary. Londoners — celebrating St. George's Day — toppled the record with 5,567 people, as verified by the Guinness Book of World Records.
I'm sorry, but who cares?

I'd like to know who provided those thousands of dang coconuts! Must've been loud.
