The pumpkin was grown by Ian and Stuart Paton from Lymington, Hants, and while travelling back from being weighed in Berkshire, the pumpkin fell off its trailer.
The 1,204 kilo pumpkin, which is roughly the size of a Fiat 500, was officially confirmed as the UK's heaviest ever.
Speaking to the Daily Mail Ian said: 'We were moving the pumpkin into a different car park and it was so heavy that the trailer tipped'
'There will have been lots of photos taken I'm sure. It's not very often you see a pumpkin like that. I'm sure its going to go viral now, but it's all good publicity'
'Luckily the pumpkin wasn't seriously damaged and no one was hurt. It has got a few bruises but nothing major.
Luckily, no one was injured and the record breaking pumpkin escaped with only minor bruising.
