Domino Day 2007 was held on 16th November, in Leeuwarden, The
Netherlands. It was broadcasted live or semi-live in 12 countries. The
theme of this year was Falling into Life. A total number of 4
500 000 dominoes were placed by 85 builders from 12 countries. 81,6%
of the total placed dominoes fell - 3 671 465.
Unfortunately, this year Domino Day failed because of the final
challenge mainly when a bridge had to be made on a revolving
hammer/clock appearing structure. The participants of this challenge
failed and as a result, the rainbow area failed to fall. However, it
was revealed that even if this area had fallen, the 2006 record would
not have been broken even though it contained over 400,000 stones. It
was the first time in 9 years that Domino Day failed to break the
previous record.
Domino Day is produced by Weijers Domino Productions in co-operation
with and by order of Endemol Nederland b.v., RTL Television GmbH, and
SBS6 Television.
