A Journey Around the World in Dominoes



This domino display visits every corner of the world, recreating flags, landmarks, and icons of different nations. It looks like a pretty standard domino topple you see at world-class domino events, until you get to about 90 seconds in, and see the huge wall of dominoes slowly falling. You have to think about the care and effort that went into it. It set a world record.

The longest domino wall was 30 m (98 ft 5 in) long and consisted of 31,405 dominoes. It was erected and toppled by Sinners Domino Production (Germany) at the Wilhelm-Lückert-Gymnasium in Büdingen, Germany, on 6 July 2012. 

The big pyramid set a world record, too. This installation contained 127,141 dominoes. You will be mesmerized by the destruction. (via I Am Bored)
