Jake and David told BuzzFeed News: "We both have had such an infatuation with the Universal Studios theme park and the film franchise itself that we thought, 'What could we do in honor of the new film?!' We wanted to do something unique in celebration, but also something that hasn't been done before."

After a little bit of brainstorming, "it kind of just came to us and we thought, 'Wait, how many times could we ride "The Jurassic Park River Adventure" ride in one day?'" the guys said. "It was then that we knew what we could do in honor of the new film: ride Jurassic Park all day and set a record!"

After talking to the Guinness World Record crew, and the ride operators, the guys set out to break the "Jurassic Record" bright and early at 9:15 a.m. local time.

After doing the math, Jake and Dave knew they needed to get through the ride 50 times. The guys were able to get through 10 rides in under two hours, but that was only the beginning.

Even though the guys knew the ride backwards and forwards, they began to notice little unique facts about the ride.

Also, in order to pass the time, they started to give each and every dinosaur a name and personality.

They reached the 50 rides mark in record time but weren't done there!

At 9:15, the guys made their last trip and created a new "Jurassic Record."

All hail Jake and Dave, the "Jurassic Park River Adventure" kings.
