Card Record Breaker

Bryan Berg, an architect from Macau - who took 44 days and 4,051 decks of cards to create a replica of China's Venetian Macau hotel inside the world's biggest casino in Las Vegas - has broken the Guinness World Record for the largest house of free-standing playing cards.

He said: "This has been the most ambitious project I have undertaken to date. It's like a real construction project because you have to engineer every single adjacency and every support that's supporting everything above."

The construction will be knocked down in ten days time.
