A goofy small report about the guinness world record attempt build in Belgium during the millennium jam 2000. I was lucky to be a part of the great team that build it. The design is from Larry Moss and Royall Sorell. During the 5 days of creating they made 48 hour work days. It was loads of fun and to all of you who where there, I wave a big Hi to you and shout: "HHHOOOLLLAANNNDDD".
