It’s nice to know that video games cannot take the place of certain toys. Lego has been a favorite of children (and some adults) for a long time. Well now some of those adults have made a new Lego record by constructing the world’s largest Lego tower.

CNN said that it happened over the weekend in a shopping center in Brazil. This beat the former record held in Chile. It stands over 102 feet, and is made of 500 thousand Legos. The previous Lego tower record, set in 2008, was 9.84 inches shorter. That was in Santiago.

Designers from Denmark were sent by Lego to build the tower. Construction took four days, and the final piece was installed by Brazilian soccer great Cafu.
