Camera Toss with 200+ people

OK, so this was a first for me today, at the WPPP, Philippines Photography convention, there was several hundred people there who came out to watch my camera toss. I had to have it up high enough to clear and get everyone. I think that I hit a new height. So does this count as the most people in a hand tossed shot, that we can submit to the Guinness Book of World Records?
Mr. Swan, can you top that?

Thanks guys to all the people who were part of this! Feel free to use the image to blog!

Oh. My. Goodness. You are nuts! Very cool image - but still... What if you missed when it came back down? How many attempts did it take?

hi sir Mike, im alex gervacio from the philippines, i was so inspired by your talk, and i will apply it to my job as well as to photography. its all about the human experience as you say, and you are one heck of a great "HAPPINESS PROPHET". its good to know that even though you're already a successful photographer/business owner, u still find time to share your knowledge and that you still focus on the people involved specially the clients.

i would like to send you a picture that i took of you, i really like this picture because to me, it captures the heart of what you were trying to say, that it is about the experience and the fun, and not about the end product.

kudos sir! i wish you all the best!

here is the link to the image =)
