London Lost Fans Willing to Risk Blood Clots For World Record

The cast and crew of Lost may have left last night's 62nd Emmy Awards empty-handed but overseas fans of the show are hellbent on winning a different kind of honor for J.J. Abrams's series by watching all 121 episodes in one sitting at London's Prince Charles Cinema in Leicester Square. If they succeed, the dedicated fans will set the world record for longest continuous cinema sitting... at three days. Deep vein thrombosis be damned!

According to The Sun, this event will mark the first public TV marathon in the UK, which will stretch over 80 hours and allow the first 280 fans through the door to participate. Viewing will commence on Monday, Sept. 13 at 10 a.m. (the UK release date of the Lost: The Final Season DVD set) and finish on Thursday afternoon. The Prince Charles Cinema is encouraging fans to dress as their favorite character from the baffling Sky1 episode and to bring survival packs and sleeping bags.

Even though regulated breaks will be permitted, paramedics will still be on hand for the risky world record attempt.
