Wellies are currently flying through the air at the National Ploughing Championships, in an attempt to enter the Guinness World Book of Records.

Macra na Feirme needs to throw more than 792 wellies at the same time to beat the record previously set in England.

Thousands of people are embracing the muck in Ratheniska in County Laois for day two of the Ploughing.

Macra President Elaine Houlihan says they're confident they can get over of the line:

"We did a trial run yesterday to see how many we could get and by standing on the walkway for two minutes we managed to get 200 people so I'm fairly confident with as they are the most stylish wellies you will ever see and if they're not the trend Electric Picnic next year I'd be I'd be very disappointed."
