And the World Record Goes to ...

Years ago, inhabitants of the Earth's frosty regions, such as those living in the Canadian tundra, faced the problem of having few building materials for shelters. These people looked toward the only abundant material around to form their shelters—snow. Thus, the igloo, the Inuit word for "snow house," was born. The Inuit invented the igloo. Centuries later, people are still building igloos.

The Inuit built igloos only large enough to accommodate a family or hunting party. Today, some people attempt to build igloos on a grander scale. In fact, igloo fans are busy trying to surpass one another by building the largest igloo ever. According to the 2009 Guinness Book of World Records, the title for the largest self-supporting igloo goes to a group of 72 volunteers under the supervision of the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of New Brunswick (APEGNB). The dome igloo was constructed in Centennial Park, Grand Falls, Canada, with a completion date of February 17, 2008. The massive igloo had an internal diameter of 28 feet and 9 inches, and its internal height was 13 feet and 8 inches. Consisting of 2,000 blocks of ice and taking 50 hours to build, the igloo required a lot of planning and dedication by workers. In the end, the igloo had the capacity to hold over 200 people inside at one time. The igloo was so big and strong that it remained standing and whole for almost 60 days!
