LG Electronics and professional card stacker Brayn Berg has set a new world record and it is for the tallest house of cards. The time taken to build the tallest house of cards is 12 hours. Above all, the thing which is to be noted that, it the record-breaking 3.3 meter tall structure was built a top on LG Centum washing machine, when it was spinning at 1,000 RPM. For your information, Bryan Berg, a Harvard-educated architect who began stacking cards at the age of eight, partnered with LG on his record-breaking attempt, a 48-story house constructed of only normal playing cards.
Commenting on the achievement, Jo Seong-jin, CEO and president of the LG Electronics Home Appliance & Air Solutions Company, said:
“We are thrilled for Bryan, who achieved a special goal, while also helping to highlight the technological innovations that exist in some of today’s home appliances. Appliances should no longer be viewed as noisy, disruptive machines but a home companion that can coexist unobtrusively in any kitchen. This record-breaking event was a creative way to drive this point home.”
LG’s unique Centum System utilizes a new damping system equipped with shock absorbers, similar to those found in automobiles. This fixed-tub system greatly reduces vibration and noise levels. By doing away with traditional springs to support the outer tub, the Centum System washing machine boasts one of the quietest spin cycles on the market, emitting only 67dB, the equivalent of a typical conversation. And with less moving parts, there’s less friction, the leading cause of wear and tear in machines. LG is so confident in the technology that the Inverter Direct Drive motors in Centum System washing machines are covered by a 20-year warranty, double the industry standard.
