"...we might be the dumbest, but at least we’re living our dreams."

LOS ANGELES—A recent street takeover event has set a new Guinness World Record for the lowest collective IQ at a group gathering. The chaotic gathering of weirdos, known for shutting down streets to perform dangerous stunts, was measured by observers who witnessed both reckless behavior and a shocking lack of basic cognitive skills.

"We’ve never seen anything like this," said Luis Paez, an official with Guinness World Records who was tasked with documenting the event. "I’ve covered all sorts of strange records, but this one really depressed me. It’s hard to imagine a more brainless group activity."

The takeover drew hundreds of participants and quickly descended into chaos, with participants attempting to drive and failing miserably. Many were seen running into oncoming traffic or filming themselves as if they were invincible. Judging by how airborne they got, they weren't invincible.

"Honestly, it’s like everyone forgot how basic physics works," said local resident Javi Ortiz, who watched from the nearest seven-eleven. "Cars were spinning out of control, hitting curbs, and taking out spectators. It was like watching an episode of World’s Dumbest."

Some participants, however, wore their new title proudly. One driver, identified only as “Chase,” boasted about the record. "Hey, we might be the dumbest, but at least we’re living our dreams," he stated with alarming seriousness. "Nobody else can say they did that!"

Despite the notoriety gained from setting this Guinness World Record, law enforcement officials are less amused. Local authorities are now cracking down harder on street takeovers. But it doesn't take much..
