One of the classic and essential handmade toys of childhood has just entered the
Guinness Book of Records
thanks to the work of young engineers linked to the Boeing company, who achieved something impressive.
The youngsters designed a paper airplane that reached
a fantastic flight of 88 meters.
That is why he achieved a place in the book of records.
The artifact's creators were Dillon Ruble with support from Nathaniel Erickson and Garrett Jensen in Crown Point, Indiana.
They
studied Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering together and are linked to the Boeing company.
The paper plane that breaks records.
How is the paper airplane created by Boeing
It
is the longest flight of any paper airplane in human history that has
a research background, since it took engineers four months to design this ideal model.
The design of this paper airplane took so many months to complete because it was modeled after
hypersonic aerospace vehicles.
In other words, all the work on this fascinating paper airplane took the scheme of airplanes that break the sound barrier.
In fact, the creators named it
Mach 5.
The creators of paper airplanes.
According to Guinness Record data, it took engineers just 20 minutes to fold it perfectly.
For the realization they used a traditional sheet of A4 paper, however it could also be another of heavier weight.
“
The heavier the paper, the more impact it will get when you throw it
,” explained one of the plane's creators.
The three young men are studying aerospace engineering.
However, despite asking for instructions on how to do it, the engineers did not explain how the paper airplane is made.
“
Our design is different from the traditional one that folds in half and then the two corners in the center”
, pointed out one of the engineers.
"It's unique and definitely unusual."
Something that confirms it is that the assembly of this plane is completely forbidden to the public.
In fact, the video where they show how it flies omits that part of the clothing.
The history of Guinness Records
In the 1950s, in the United Kingdom, Sir Hugh Beaver, then
general director of the Guinness distillery, had the idea of making a book where he could record the most important events.
It all started when Beaver, along with his friends, hunted animals in County Wexford
, England.
During this activity, between shots, they asked themselves, for example, which bird was the fastest in the area.
Not finding any answer that convinced them all, the men discussed their criteria enough to finally disagree.

In 1954, reminiscing about those discussions, Sir Beaver had an idea to promote Guinness beer
: he decided to sponsor such disputes that also took place in various pubs and invited the brothers Norris and Ross McWhirter to compile a book of outstanding facts and facts.
This is how Guinness Superlatives was founded on November 30 and opened its office in two rooms of a London gym.
The easiest Guinness Records
Here is a brief list of the easiest actions to perform from home.
touch glasses
Although it is not difficult and not very complex, it becomes almost impossible in times of pandemic, since this record was reached by 349 participants who touched their glasses synchronously in a Belgian school.

Make the bed
In 1993, a couple of nurses managed to enter the Guinness Book of Records as the people who took the least amount of time to make a bed.
They entered the record because they managed to complete the task, perfectly, in just 14 seconds.
