Tsunami Charity Is in the Cards

Bryan Berg, 30, knows how to play his cards. But he's no gambler. He holds the Guinness World Record for building the tallest freestanding house of cards ever. His record-breaking tower measured more than 25 feet tall and was made with more than 90,000 cards! Last month, Berg built a New York City skyline as a tribute to tsunami victims. He used a card for each life lost in the disaster in South Asia. "It brings awareness back to what went on," he told TFK.
