  • Have you ever played a card game then decided to see how high you could stack the cards? Bryan Berg has made card stacking an art form. He holds numerous Guinness World Records (so many he's lost count), and keeps upping the ante on the difficulty. Stacking a house of cards on a running dryer? Why not!

    This video raises many unanswered questions:
    What happens to the cards AFTER the project? Are they sorted and re-used, or just thrown away? Who supplies the cards? Does he get them for free as a promotion for the company that manufactures them, or are they purchased? How is he compensated for his time when doing these projects? And WHY would anyone leave a thumbs down on this video?
