In a spectacular record attempt that took place high above Buenos Aires in Argentina, tango dancers Mora Godoy and Jose Lugones set a new Guinness World Records title for the Highest suspended performance/show, completing a dance routine on a stage 60.4 m (198 ft 1.95 in) above the ground.
The spectacular attempt was organised by a group called Elevé Danza who put on acrobatic dance performances all over the world, and under the direction of Horacio Olano.
The platform was hung from a crane next to the famous Buenos Aires Obelisk. While Godoy and Lugones danced on top of the stage, four acrobats were suspended below and thousands of dancers were on the ground.
The spectacular event took place live on TV for the season premiere of Argentine dance programme ShowMatch.
Mora Godoy, who rose to fame after asking US President Barack Obama to dance when he visited Argentina in March, is one of the most celebrated tango dancers in the world - but this attempt was a demanding new challenge for her.
Following a practice-run of the attempt, Godoy told La Nacion that her team had to do a lot of preparation for the performance, including building the crane, creating a non-slip rubber dance mat, and getting some specially-made shoes.
Official adjudicator Sarah Cusson attended the performance to verify the record and ensure that the pair danced for a minimum of 15 minutes, as required by the Guinness World Records guidelines.
In spite of the cold and rainy conditions on the day, the two tango dancers successfully achieved the impressive new record.
