Dutch company dives into record books with biggest ball pit ever

Everyone loved playing in a ball pit as a kid, but can you imagine what it would be like to dive into the Largest ball bath in the world? 

 

Tempo Team, an HR company from the Netherlands, created a ball pond so huge that it would make anyone feel like a child again.

 

 

The rectangular padded pool had an immense surface area of 346.82 m² (3,733.139 ft²) and contained an incredible 1,100,000 balls (which could measure no more than 4 inches (10.1 cm) in diameter).

 

Over 1,000 Tempo Team employees took a dip in the giant ball pool which had an average depth of 1.41 m (4 ft 7.51 in).

 

 

They sunk the previous record which Kerry Hotel Pudong Shanghai (China) achieved in 2013 with their 315.6 m² (3397.1 ft²) ball bath that had an average depth of 1.3 m (4 ft 3 in) and 1,000,000 balls.

 

It took hours to fill with over a million red balls, but the pit was finally finished and, following an audit by a qualified surveyor, Tempo Team was confirmed as the proud new record holder for the biggest ball bath in the world.
