VOICED : Grupo scout rompe récord de construcción con bloques de madera

A scout group from eastern France built the world's tallest tower made of small wooden blocks, stacking over 11,000 pieces to reach 18.76 meters. The project required significant effort and coordination, as they started with no resources. The game of stacking these blocks was invented by a Dutchman in 1987. The scouts used France's tallest climbing wall in Milhouse for their four-day mission, assembling 11,200 blocks into 133 floors. They were unaware of their record-breaking achievement until completion, surpassing the previous record of 18.40 meters set in Lyon in 2016.
