Mr Plaud, who has loved making models since he was eight, had originally bought matches in supermarkets to build the structure.
But his arduous plans to win the Guinness World Record fell away when he decided the process was too ‘fastidious’ – and instead persuaded French matchstick maker Flam’Up to supply him with huge boxes of filled with 190,000 headless matches.
Apparently this is that Guinness objected to. Since he didn’t scrape the match heads off, they were just sticks, not matchsticks.
I would not agree, but I’m biased. Fuck Guinness.
I haven’t tried it myself (still on my wishlist), but people on ProtonDB say it runs fine.
