On Domino Day, we topple an ever-increasing number of dominoes in a
beautiful setting to aim for a new world record. Specially for the 11th edition we've restyled the show and created a design in 7 flows. Like every year it contains new concepts and techniques. To make it all work we need a lot of people and resources. How big is it actually?
