Don't Miss This Gigantic Selfie

Darpan News Desk IANS, 24 Nov, 2014 11:17 AM
  • Don't Miss This Gigantic Selfie
A group of at least 1,151 people in Bangladesh have taken a selfie together with their Nokia Lumia 730 smartphone - making it one of the gigantic selfies fit to become the world's largest selfie.
 
The five megapixel mid-range Windows Phone found a smart way to advertise its front-facing camera and asked people to come for the self-portrait.
 
Posted on the Facebook page of Microsoft Lumia Bangladesh, the photo apparently required people to sign up to keep a track of how many were there.
 
It has been liked by more than 20,000 people on the page so far.
 
Ellen DeGeneres' Oscar selfie is still on top with 3.37 million retweets and 2.01 favourites but the Lumia photo could claim a record for the largest number of people in a selfie.
 
The record is yet to be confirmed by Guinness World.
