VIDEO: IT Tralee students break record for pulling most Christmas crackers at same time

The students down in Kerry have wasted no time in getting into the Christmas spirit.

More than 1,000 of them from the Institute of Technology in Tralee got together this morning to break the record for the number of Christmas crackers pulled simultaneously.

Since the existing record is 798, they should be fairly confident of a success.

It's yet to be checked, but nevertheless it was done to raise money for a couple of good causes - namely MS Ireland, the Cope Foundation and Our Lady’s Hospice and Care Services in Dublin.
