When two members of a group who dubbed themselves Great Balls of Fur to go charity rallying around the world in fake fur covered vehicles decided to get married, the stag night was bound to be like no other.

It turned into a stag weekend, dubbed Chariots of Fur in tribute to British Olympic heroes, and saw the friends touring Somerset in a fake fur covered mini bus complete with horns, trying to break eccentric Guinness World Records.
