Look on the bright side: Over 100 people turn up to theme park wearing 'morphsuits', but still fail to break bizarre world record



More than a hundred people brightened up a gloomy day in Staffordshire, donning 'morphsuits' to a theme park in a bid to break a world record.



The hordes turned out at Drayton Manor Theme Park, near Tamworth, in an effort to break the bizarre world record for the most people gathered in one place wearing morphsuits.



The all-in-one Lycra suits, costing around £30, completely cover the wearer but still allow them to see.

I can see you! A morphsuit wearer takes a picture at Drayton Manor Park where park organisers were trying to get more than 250 people wearing morphsuits together in an attempt to break the world record

Taking it easy: The all-in-one Lycra suits cost around £30. They completely cover the wearer but still allow them to see

Good effort: Despite a campaign on Facebook, prompting 114 people to turn up despite gloomy weather, the current record of 250 people wearing morphsuits in one place was not broken

But despite a campaign on Facebook, prompting 114 people to turn up despite gloomy weather, the current record of 250 people was not broken.

Organisers said after the attempt the 'Morphs' made their way to the park's thrill rides for an afternoon of fun.

Colin Bryan, the park's managing director, said: 'Morphsuits are so popular at different events and locations that we wanted to give fans the opportunity to get together as a big group at Drayton Manor.

Spectacle: They may not have broken the world record, but Organisers said after the attempt the 'Morphs' made their way to the park's thrill rides for an afternoon of fun

On the bright side: Despite the rain, the Morphs made the most of their afternoon at the park, starting a colourful conga at one stage

Keeping up appearances: Let's hope these Morphs brought a change of clothes for the journey home

'The turnout was amazing and it was quite a sight to behold, especially as a lot of people were wearing blue, red and yellow suits, the colour of Drayton Manor's logo.

'It's been a wonderful atmosphere, people really enjoying themselves and it was fantastic to see big groups of brightly coloured Morphs whizzing around on the rides!'



Drayton Mannor had tried to encourage people to attend the world record attempt by offering free admission to the park for those who wore the colours of the park's logo.

Pride and joy! This couple seem to be enjoying themselves in spite of the failed world record attempt

Bizarre: Some Morphs chose to complete their weird and wonderful look with wigs and other accessories
