A couple from New Zealand, who contested in the Guinness World Records for having dug the biggest potato in the world, has now confirmed that it was not a potato at all, Sky News reported.

Colin Craig-Brown and his wife Donna found this astonishing tuber last August while they were gardening on their farm near Hamilton in New Zealand.

They submitted multiple photos and went through a lot of paperwork to enter their discovery in the Guinness World Records. The scientific test results, however, turned out negative, crushing the couple’s hopes.

The email said: “Sadly, the specimen is not a potato and is in fact the tuber – a type of gourd. For this reason, we do unfortunately have to disqualify the application.”

The couple named the tuber ‘Dug’.
