1) There are about 62 LEGO bricks for every one of the world’s 6 billion inhabitants
2) Children around the world spend 5 billion hours a year playing with LEGO bricks
3) 7 LEGO sets are sold by retailers every second around the world.
4) More than 400 billion LEGO bricks have been produced since 1949. Stacked on
top of each other, this is enough to connect the Earth and the Moon ten times over.
Have you built a tall tower of Lego and wished it was taller but you’ve ran out of bricks? Well in LegoLand Windsor a huge tower of Lego bricks measuring 32 metres (which is a whopping 105ft) has been built. It took hundreds of volunteers four days to construct this beast of a tower. It has 160 different colored sections and I believe, it’s now a world record for Britain! When the final volunteer placed the last brick onto the top can you imagine if it toppled over there and then? They would be incredibly gutted.
Do you have any Lego stories? If you do please share them with me. I’m going to go back to chilling out, laters.
