AceShowbiz - Ben Stiller took selfie to a whole new level when attending the London premiere of his new film "Zoolander 2" on Thursday night, February 4. The actor attempted to take a picture with his co-stars using an insanely long selfie stick that helped him set a Guinness World Record.
With the 28-foot long stick, which is the longest selfie stick ever made, Stiller put his phone at risk when he took an aerial photo of him and other cast members including Penelope Cruz, Owen Wilson, Kristen Wiig, Will Ferrell, Justin Theroux, Lara Stone and Millie Mackintosh.

The picture was then shared on the movie's Twitter page. "This was much more dangerous than it looks," Stiller commented on it. As seen in a video below, the 50-year-old comedian indeed struggled to keep the stick steady in the wind.

In addition to the record-breaking selfie, the night saw the stars walking the blue carpet in style. Cruz braved the cold in a metallic dress flaunting her cleavage and leg. Wiig also looked gorgeous in a black dress with a satin bronze bow at her middle.
"Zoolander 2" is scheduled to hit U.S. theaters on February 12.
