Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum, Sofia Vergara and Howie Mandel joined the America's Got Talent audience in setting a world record on Tuesday's episode of the NBC show.
The season 19 auditions concluded with Nick Manning, of Queensland, Australia, attempting to beat the Guinness Book of World Records titleholder for 'most underpants pulled on in 30 seconds'.
An official adjudicator named Michael from Guinness World Records was on hand, but Nick failed to break the record of 23.
'Sorry, Nick, you did not beat the world record. But we have a chance to go for another world record right now. Correct?,' said show host Terry Crews, 55.
'Correct,' Nick said as she revealed they could all break the record for most people gathered in one place wearing underwear on their heads.

'Why?,' Simon, 64, asked.
Terry informed the audience that underwear was underneath each seat and encouraged everyone to put it on their head to break the record.
Howie, Heidi and Sofia took part in the attempt, but Simon hesitated as a chant rose from the audience of people saying, 'Simon, wear it!'
Simon was assured the underwear was new and clean and joined the other judges by wearing it on his head.
The hit Rod Stewart song 'Da Ya Think I'm Sexy' played as the audience danced with underwear on their head for the one minute required to break the record.
The adjudicator then revealed that the previous record was 355 people and they had crushed it with 1,206 people wearing underwear on their heads.
The audience and judges were fairly excited about breaking the record, but it didn't translate for Nick when it came time for the judges to give their feedback.
Sofia, 52, admitted that she personally was not fascinated by world record attempts. Simon pointed out that Nick failed on his first attempt and wondered aloud how hard it was to break the second record.
