STUDENTS Faisal Mohyud-Din and Mohammed Azeem are locked in a tight clinch in a bid to beat the world hugging record.
The pair began their challenge at 10.20pm yesterday, and aim to crack the 24 hours and one minute record at half time at tonight’s Oldham Athletic v Leyton Orient match at Boundary Park.
Salford University students Faisal (18) and Azeem (21), volunteered for the recordbreaking feat to herald the countdown to Oldham’s new £17 million radiotherapy centre opening next Tuesday.
