A new world record has been set in Mexico City, and it's a weird one! Hundreds of men and women gathered there on Saturday dressed as 'The Skeleton Lady' - a famous image by late Mexican printmaker Jose Posada. The event was timed to mark Mexico's 'Day of the Dead' holiday, where 'Catrina' - as she's known - is a popular icon.
