World's largest kebab

Ever wondered what the meat from seven cows would look like on a skewer?
We hadn't either, but thanks to a team of Turks who created the world's largest doner kebab, weighing in at almost 1,200kg and over 2.5m tall, we now know. The kebab was officially announced as the world's biggest this week, and it's double the size of the previous record holder, a limp 468kg.
While the sight of this one-tonne rotating wall of flesh makes us feel a little hungover, we're glad to hear it was put to good use as snacks for the spectators.
