Hey, hey.
Hello, my name is Eric Clavel, and I hold the Guinness World Record for the tallest toothpick sculpture.
I decided to break this Guinness Record mainly because of how much fun I had breaking the Guinness Record for the tallest popsicle stick tower when I was younger, and I kinda just wanted to do the same thing but with a harder material.
And I learned that toothpicks were tinier and not as strong, so it would definitely be a harder challenge to work with.
So I started experimenting with my own toothpick sculptures, and just to kinda get a feel for toothpicks, and eventually I started on my toothpick tower journey.
So I want to go into the process of actually how I built this toothpick tower.
So what I would do first is I would create long chains of toothpicks.
So first, what I would do is I would put glue on one side of the toothpick, glue it to another toothpick, and then put another glob of glue on the other side, and then glue it together.
I used this triangle structure I built.
Um, it's kind of like a jig.
