Worlds Tallest Lego Tower!!
Now this is not directly related to Mindstorms, but way too cool to share with all.
Once again, the record for the world’s largest Lego tower has fallen. Last year, the Lego bricks towered 96 feet over Toronto. A new LEGO tower in the UK has taken over the title of “world’s tallest”. Constructed using over 500,000 bricks, it towers 100-feet above LEGOLAND Windsor. Hitting the 100 foot mark is definitely a fitting way to celebrate the 50th anniversary.

That would have been really fun to help build and to know that you were part of the building process.
That would be alot of technic pieces, especially if the tower is solid.

That’s awesome! Doesn’t look like it’s free-standing though.
