"World's largest playing card structure" record has been broken by a 15-year-old Indian boy
Arnav Daga created a structure that features four famous structures from his hometown of Kolkata using an astounding 1,43,000 playing cards
His building is 12.21 meters long, 3.47 meters tall, and 5.08 meters wide
Guinness World Records (GWR) states that Daga built this complex, which includes the Writer's Building, Shaheed Minar, Salt Lake Stadium, and St. Paul's Cathedral, in under 41 days
Before beginning to stack the cards to build the edifice, Daga visited all four locations to carefully examine their architecture and determine their measurements
Guinness World Records also shared a timelapse video of Daga building the structure. “Building the largest playing card structure,” the record-keeping organisation wrote as the title of the video shared on YouTube
Daga is seen in the video arranging them in a basic outline on the floor. Grids and vertical cells are used in his construction method to create the structures
Three days ago, the video was shared on YouTube. Since then, it has been viewed by more than 60,000 people, and the figure is continuously rising.
