The Malta Records awarded a new record, which saw the largest amount of paper (quantified in weight) thrown by hand by the least amount of people off a private residence in the least amount of time.
A total of 81 sacks, weighing 255 kilos, were thrown by hand by 10 persons in 2 minutes and 53 seconds.
This took place in Triq John Borg, Birkirkara, in the residence of Kurt Farrugia and Chantelle Farrugia Sacco along with their daughter Ylenia.
Drone footage shows the ground absolutely covered in white like snowfall, with festa attendees celebrating as the record was set.
