Ben Stiller sets world record for longest selfie stick


Ben Stiller has broken the world record for the longest selfie stick at the premiere of his film, “Zoolander 2,” in London.

The actor was joined by his co-stars as he held the 8.5 meter monopod over his head with a mobile device attached to it.

A judge from the Guinness World Records was on hand to confirm the record-breaking effort.

Stiller portrays model Derek Zoolander in the comedy whose plot revolves around the assassination of the world's biggest stars.

The art of the selfie also takes center stage in the film as each dead celebrity took their final selfies while imitating Zoolander's signature pose.

Stiller admitted a sequel was not originally in the cards. The original film only had moderate box office success 15 years ago but later built a cult following.
