A couple of weeks ago we were invited to the National Forest Adventure Farm to build a scarecrow for their world record attempt. Well, yesterday they finally broke the Guinness World Record with their 3312th scarecrow, a 12 foot giant creation called Big Ernie.
Congratulations!!
There is still time to join in the fun though, the scarecrow making will continue until 7th September to make a Scarecrow and then a winner will be chosen to win a Family Pass to the Adventure Farm.
Here are our scarecrows.
Some Interesting Stats:
If you lined up all the scarecrows side by side with the tips of their hands touching, they would spread for 3 miles, form the Adventure Farm to the middle of Burton-On-Trent
The world record line-up has used 5.5 miles of wooden frames
It’s used 8.5 tonnes of straw
3312 sacks for heads, 3312 tops and 3312 trousers
