You didn't mentioned the name of the record so how can I tell you the detail about. Please update your thread and get the best answers. If you're wishing to know about the Egypt divers plan a mass dive on 26th of July. Its correct. They are attempting a world record.

To specify, the Egypt Scuba Challenge aims to get 3000 divers into the water off Hurghada on 26 July 2011, weather permitting, which attempts to break the Guinness World record.

Not sure what actually happened, but I think they probably succeeded.
