70 naked people ride a rollercoaster to break record

102 people gathered in Essex at Adventure Island to ride a roller coaster--completely naked. Riders both hoped to break the previously set record and help raise money for breast cancer research and care. The previous record was set in Stafford in 2004 by 32 naked riders. More than 22,000 pounds were raised by the volunteers. The proceeds go to Southend Hospital's breast cancer unit. The hospital hopes to raise enough money to buy 2 new mammography machines.
