The most people opening bottles in a relay is 1,186 and was achieved by Feng Chia University (China) in Taichung, Taiwan, China, on 9 December 2018.


This record attempt was made as part of the annual Feng Chia University EMBA Alumni Association Festival, with this year marking the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Association. Feng Chia University EMBA Alumni Association is Taiwan's largest university alumni association.

Participants in the attempt were members of the association and their family members.

The bottles used for the attempt were Coca-Cola contour bottles, both regular clear glass and with anniversary limited-edition coats, with sealed bottle caps that were opened with traditional speed openers.

Three attempts were made. The first finished at position 117 and the second at position 155 in the relay. Both failed attempts were caused by participants opening their bottles before the previous participant in the relay had finished opening theirs. The third attempt was successful, beginning at around 4:30 pm and ending at 5:49 pm.

The attempt site was cleared away entirely and empty bottles stacked in containers ready for removal, to ensure that no empty bottles were left at the venue site.
