GOLD104.3 publish the Melbourne Book of Records

Brig & Lehmo – GOLD104.3’s breakfast team – have been searching for record holders in their own city of Melbourne. 

The team have been searching for people in a number of quirky categories, including: Melbourne’s tallest man, oldest dog, biggest fish, oldest piece of wedding cake, and even the most times someone has watched The Sound of Music (329 times, apparently). Masterchef’s Matt Preston holds the record for the biggest collection of cravats in Melbourne, with an astounding 400 in his closet.

This morning at Melbourne’s tallest building, Eureka Tower (297 metres high), Brig & Lehmo celebrated all the wonderful and weird that Melbourne has to offer, culminating with the publication and launch of their very own Melbourne’s Gold Book of Records.

To commemorate the launch of the book, the pair invited some of the record holders and a few lucky GOLD104.3 listeners to help them celebrate. Also joining them in the celebrations was Iva Davies from Icehouse performing the Australian classic, ‘Great Southern Land’.
