Longest Socks washing line on the Planet


That was a good idea to get rid off the stink and infuse fresh fragrance.The staff at Tripsdill Amusement Park might have washed all the socks in the town in their bid to set a world record as well as to do something different.They created a socks line  with more than 10,000 pairs of socks  measuring 2,324.08 meters .It started  at the entrance and goes past the attractions and all the way along the walkways.
The guys were so dedicated that they urged visitors to bring pair of socks along with them.Many travellers were  requested to donate  the  socks they were wearing  .And with all the socks  pouring in it was washing time for the staff. It was a nice sight to watch with the colourful stockings hanged across all over the park.The overall feel looked as if the park is garlanded with  socks of different sizes and colours.
To add some humour in our  discussion was when we discovered that  although most of the socks were in good condition  at the same time some of them had holes peeping too which just managed to slip out of attention.
The  current washing spree of socks  smashed the previous record of 2013.75  meters.So by a good 310 meters Tripsdill Amusement Park has washed away the title from the earlier record holders.
The Longest line of socks measured 2324.08 meters and was set by Tripsdill Amusement Park at Cleebronn,Germany on May 25,2010.
