Families and children have
marked the Expo 2015 universal exposition by building a
35.05-metre-tall Lego tower with multi-coloured bricks at the
Fabbrica del Vapore, organisers said.
The construction of the tower, certified by a Guinness
records book official, took five days with the last 'brick'
placed in position by TV presenter Alessandro Cattelan who
climbed on a crane to conclude the tower.
Lego pledged to donate 7 euros for each centimetre of the
tower to a project dedicated to protection and development of
urban oases in collaboration with the World Wildlife Fund.
The Milan tower snatched the record from a tower previously
built in Budapest.
