A five-time US giant pumpkin contest winner tells the BBC he’d “love” to break the world document for a second time.
Horticulture trainer Travis Gienger hauled his pumpkin from Minnesota to Half Moon Bay, California, for the annual pumpkin weighing occasion.
His whopping gourd took home the prize, tipping the scales at 2,389 kilos (1,083kg).
But Gienger says he’s eyeing off a completely different prize – the world document title – which was set in England’s south coast last week with a squash weighing in at 2,857 kilos (1,300kg).
As a earlier holder of the world-record mantle, Gienger says he’s targeted on the problem forward.
