Well, there's this crazy Dutch guy who rents some big hall (or maybe it's his) and he and his staff will build up small domino brickets all year long to images and and stuff and then on november 15 (at least for the last 3 years or so) the will bring them to fall....
If I'm not mistaken about 3.5 mio brickets were used this year... quite cool to watch if your tired and have nothing else to do...

Ok, 3,847,295 domino brickets did fall and that's a new world record...

Wow! How long does it take to put them all up?

Well, I think they mentioned that over 60 people were busy for more than 8 weeks building up those brickets...
Can you imagine how exciting that would be for 8 weeks everyday doing nothing else but sleeping, eating and putting brickets in place???

Nah, I rather stick to this bizz here!
