25,000 domino pieces create menorah

  • 12 years ago
It's not kosher, you can't use it to light candles -- and it actually collapsed within minutes, but the menorah placed at the Israel Museum's entrance hall is probably one of the most impressive Hanukkah candlesticks ever seen in Israel. A large audience arrived Sunday afternoon to watch the huge menorah, made out of 25,000 domino pieces, fall. Five-year-old Dan Ben-Simchon won a raffle and was the one to make the first piece fall, creating a magnificent chain reaction. The menorah was built by Nissim Lopez and Yogev Levy, who have turned the Domino Rally game into a time-consuming habit. They hope that collapsing the huge menorah will land them in the Guinness Book of Records.
