A LEGO world record was broken in Sao Paulo, Brazil this month when
6,000 people -- most of whom were kids -- got together to build the tallest LEGO tower
the world has ever known. They pushed Chile's previous world record out
of the top spot by building a 102 foot, 3 inch tower out of individual
LEGOs, with the help of a very tall crane.
There were 500,000 individual LEGOs in the tower and it took the
group four days to assemble the giant monolith. When it was finished it
was held in place by wire supports, but still swayed from side to side
over the nearby highway.
Not only is this an example of what kids
can do with their powers combined, but also a great learning experience
for those involved. Kids were able to take part in building something
truly amazing while learning about structure and building basics in a
way that they can understand. We’ve got to congratulate the adults that
put this thing together and have to say it’s definitely one of the most
impressive playtimes we’ve ever seen.(Inhbtos)
