Hirokazu Tanakas set world record for meeting of people with same name

A 178-strong group of people all called Hirokazu Tanaka broke the Guinness World Record for the largest gathering of people with the same first and last name, after they came together in Tokyo on Saturday. The Tanaka Hirokazu association organized the successful attempt in Shibuya Ward, which saw them outdo the 2005 record set by 164 people called Martha Stewart, who were brought together by the famous American businesswoman of the same name. Reflecting on their achievement, the 53-year-old Tanaka said, "Without creating anything or producing any kind of result as such, we have, just by being here, been able to become number one in the world at something." The association's representative Tanaka founded the organization for people with the same appellation as him in 1994.
