Lara Croft model a winner

Of course, we’ll be so bold as to assume the main reason why you clicked on this news item is to ogle the current Lara croft model/gymanst, Alison Carroll. The people at Guinness World Records appreciate this too, which is why they’ve kindly provided us with a small gallery of photos. Enjoy!
