The famous Colorado ski town of Breckenridge has taken back the world record for the most people simultaneously drinking from a line of shot skis only two months after Utah's Park City took the record from them.

The two famous ski towns have been breaking each other's records for almost a decade now.

Breckenridge set a new record of 1401 people drinking shots of Breckenridge Distillery's Broncos Blend and Candy Cane vodka. 503 linked shot skis were used, which together totalled 2,477 feet in length.

As usual its staged its shot ski world record attempt as part of its annual Ullr Fest which also includes a ceremonial old skis sacrifice in a bonfire to appease the famous snow god at the main season start.

Park City had taken Breckenridge's previous record of 1,377 people back on 13 October when 1,400 people took part. Breckenridge has now reclaimed the title with one more person. Back in 2013 the record was only 192 people using 60 skis.
