Australian Family Sets Christmas Lights World Record
An Australian family has set the Guinness World Record for having the most Christmas lights on their home.
Friends and neighbours showed up to take a closer look at the Christmas lights that illuminate the residential property of David Richards and his family in Canberra.
Guinness World Records official Chris Sheedy confirmed Monday that the Richards family of Canberra set the record for Christmas lights on a residential property with 502,165 twinkling bulbs.
David Richards said while he bought all the lights, a local power company would donate the estimated 2,500 Australian dollars ($2,300) in electricity that would illuminate them for the next month.
The family first entered the famous record book in 2001 with 331,038 multi-colored lights. But they were trumped last year by a family in LaGrangeville, New York, who illuminated their home with 346,283 lights.
