My name is Abitjus Minder Dabur and I hold the Guinness World Record title for the most
0:08
Jenga blocks stacked on one vertical Jenga block. I decided to take on this record after
0:14
realizing my passion for balancing. On the day of the attempt, I prepared all the Jenga boxes with numbers so it was easier
0:32
to see what number I was at. I followed a pattern where I took the corners out
0:49
So the center of gravity stayed in the middle. So this is the pattern I follow
0:54
It's like an X in the middle. Every time it's overlapping the next one
1:00
And now putting it the opposite way. My toughest moments are when I have to restabilize the build
1:13
Sometimes it is overwhelming when it crashes but it gives me an opportunity to build a new one
1:36
To have achieved this world record makes me feel very proud. Achieving something extra-nordial like this is beyond what I imagined possible
1:44
It is pleasant to finally get the validation for all the hard work that was put in
1:53
This construction took around six hours to be completed. The successful record totaled the great number of 3132 Jenga blocks
2:07
which equals 50 to 80 boxes and weighed approximately 127 pounds, 58 kilos
2:18
It is beyond this list that I hold the official title from Guinness World Records
2:23
I will most likely go for more records, either by increasing the number of blocks or by trying to break other records
