Chinese Woman Is the New Domino Diva
From Times Wire Reports
A 24-year-old woman from China tipped over 303,621 dominoes in Singapore, breaking the record for the world’s longest solo domino topple.
Beijing-born Ma Lihua broke a 19-year-old record set by Germany’s Klaus Friedrich, who had set up and toppled 281,581 dominoes. Ma said she put in 13-hour days for seven weeks to lay out the dominoes. In one setback, a bug knocked over 10,000 tiles.
It took slightly more than four minutes to knock them all down on purpose.
