Aug 8, 2007, 14:47 GMT
Belgrade - Some 250 young graffiti artists painted a world record-long 605-metre piece on Wednesday in the Serbian city of Kragujevac.
In a span of 24 hours, the artists topped the previous record of 507 metres held by Norwegian graffiti artists.
Both local artists and graffiti writers from Germany, Italy and neighbouring Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina joined the event in Kragujevac, some 140 kilometres south of Belgrade.
Both the canvas and a video documentary of the event would be sent to the Guinness World Records organization for confirmation of the record, stated the Kragujevac-based youth centre which organized the event.
