Australian actor/comedian Paul Fenech (Fat Pizza) recently made a 12,000-mile pizza delivery, from Austraila to New Zealand, via Spain and South Africa. The three-day trek was done to raise money for 13-year-old Niko Apostolakis, a non-hodgkins lymphoma sufferer in Wellington, New Zealand, and to raise awareness for CanTeen, a youth cancer charity group. To make getting through customs easier, the pizza was cheese-free. Apostolakis didn't have to eat the three-day-old pie once it arrived, Stuff reported. Fenech apparently took down a slice upon delivery, however, according to NineMSN. Oddly enough, the previous record was held by another T.V. show, Neighbors, for a London to Australia delivery.
