Happy Halloween! The BBC brings good tidings from York:
A man has paddled down the River Ouse in a giant pumpkin boat.
Tom Pearcy, who works at York Maze, claims it is a world record for the largest pumpkin boat, weighing 619kg (1364lbs).
As there is currently no recognised world record for the largest pumpkin boat, York Maze have applied to Guinness World Records to have this achievement recognised.
You can see video footage of this magnificent vessel here, or watch below:
