The thought of playing Yahtzee for 8 hours may seem like a tall order for some, but couple this with an underwater environment and you have yourself a World Record attempt. A group of divers from Sweden are taking Yahtzee to the depths of their Tropicarium on January 31st 2011!
They want to not only attempt a world record by playing as many games of Yahtzee underwater, estimated at around 8 hours, but they want to alert people of the Project AWARE Give Shark a Fighting Chance campaign. PADI Course Director, Mikaela Sjölin said, ‘We will continue until the air is empty’. The divers will have dual 18 L232 Bar Steel tanks and will play as many rounds of Yahtzee in the shark pool as they possible can in 8 hours!
A big thank you to Mikaela Sjölin, Annelie Lövgren, and Levente Toth, for organising this event. Best of luck to all the participants!
