The Millennium Jam 2000
To put the Millennium Jam on the map ,we organised the amazing Guinness World Record Attempt to
build the largest ballon sculpture that was ever made with non-round balloons .
Two american twisters Larry Moss and Royal Sorell and a team of 44 twisters from 13 countries in
which the contribution and expertise of the french twisters was crucial ,worked five days and nights
to create the largest sculpture ever made with 260's .
A total of 40781 balloons were twisted ,woven etc ... to two giant soccerplyers , a goal and a colossal
soccerball . It was awesome !
The Jam itself had people from 13 countries . The most successful workshops were the ones of the
unique David 'Mr.Rainbow' Bartlett and the Amazing Patrick Brown !
Of course the performance of our Master of Ceremonies "S" Frank Stringham was an unforgettable
demonstration of showmanship ; he single-handedly saved the Gala Evening !
