http://www.aolnews.com/2011/04/13/toy-t ... e-soars-over-brazil/ Building a tower that rises more than 100 feet isn't child's play -- even when you're using Legos. Blockheads in Sao Paulo, Brazil, have reportedly constructed the world's tallest Lego tower. Made from 500,000 pieces, the multicolored monolith rises 102 feet 3 inches. It took a team of 6,000 builders four days to construct the tower, which bests a previous record set in Santiago, Chile, by about 1 foot Lego sent officials from Denmark to monitor the progress of the structure as it was assembled in a parking lot behind a shopping center. According to CNN, retired Brazilian soccer star Cafu attached the last Lego block, cementing the tower's place in the record books. Building towers out of Legos isn't a new calling -- passionate Lego lovers have been assembling massive structures made from the toys since 1988, when a team of Londoners put together a Lego creation that rose about 49 feet. In the years since, Lego towers have grown taller and taller. That is a lot of lego. Imagine all the Star wars ships you could build with them ^_^ |
