The largest playing card structure is 12.21 m (40 ft) long, 3.47 m (11 ft 4 in) tall and 5.08 m (16 ft 8 in) wide, achieved by Arnav Daga (India) in Kolkata, West Bengal, India, on 23 January 2023.
Arnav has loved card-stacking since he was eight years old, and during the Covid-19 lockdown, it became his passion to achieve a Guinness World Records title. After years of practice, he felt ready for it.
He built a structure using around 143,000 playing cards. It features four landmarks from Kolkata (Shaheed Minar, St Paul’s Cathedral, Salt Lake Stadium, and Writer’s Building) and took 41 days to complete.
