A teenager from the Indian state of Kolkata has recently set a Guinness World Record for making the largest card structure in the world.

Arnav Daga, a 15-year-old teenager from Kolkata has created the world’s largest playing card structure breaking the Guinness World Record.

According to the Guinness World Record (GWR), the boy Arnav Daga spent a total of 41 days creating the amazing feat using playing cards. The young boy replicated Kolkata’s major landmark with the help of playing cards.

Arnav Daga made four iconic buildings from his home city Kolkata in his amazing structure including the Writers’ Building, the Shaheed Minar, Salt Lake Stadium, as well as St. Paul’s Cathedral.

Daga’s card structure was created using around 143,000 playing cards with zero tape or glue. The Indian teenager finished his project which measured 40 feet in length, 16 feet 8 inches in width, and 11 feet 4 inches in height.

The GWR has shared a video of Arnav building the largest playing card structure on their official YouTube channel as well as Instagram.

The video has impressed netizens. “I can tell that he had ultimate patience,” an Instagram user wrote adding, “and stability to build this.” Another wrote, “That's cool.” A third joked, “I would never have the patience to do this.”

As per GWR, the boy broke the previous world record which was held by Bryan Berg who made a playing card structure of three Macao hotels which measured 34 feet and 1 inch long, 11 feet and 7 inches wide, and 9 feet and 5 inches tall.
