Watch 1,200 Adults Set The World Record For Mattress Dominoes

Whatever you’re working on today, it’s less squishy, fun and distinctive than this. But no matter how big or small your aims may be, you deserve a break to watch 1,200 mattress-clutching adult humans falling like dominoes in one of the weirdest team sports imaginable. 

What you’re seeing here is the new world record for Human Mattress Dominoes being achieved by employees of Aaron’s, an electronics store in National Harbor, Maryland, USA on March 22nd, 2016. It took 34 additional aids and spotters, and the 1.2K (uninjured) mattresses were later donated to a regional non-profit.

This is a feat so stupid and charming that it’s hard to imagine attempting it (particularly at work) but you can’t help but be glad someone did. It’s unclear how long the route design and setup took them, but their 13 minutes and 38 seconds of squishy success look pretty worth it from here.
