Talk about squash goals! A monstrous pumpkin stole the show at Britain’s Wargrave Nursery Giant Pumpkin Weigh-Off, tipping the scales at a jaw-dropping 2,856.8 pounds (1,295.8 kg) and earning the title of the world’s heaviest pumpkin.
Heavier than a white rhino or a Volkswagen Beetle, this giant gourd squashed the competition to become the undisputed pumpkin king of the patch!
