A big congrats to National Forest Adventure Farm in Burton upon Trent! They have broke the world record for the largest display of scarecrows as number 3,312 joined the impressive line-up. The world record-breaking scarecrow is a 12ft-tall giant creation called Big Ernie.
Interesting facts:
- If you lined up all the scarecrows side by side with the tips of their hands touching it would spread 3 miles, from the Adventure Farm to the centre of Burton upon Trent.
- The world record line-up has used 5.5 miles of wooden frames.
- It’s used 8.5 tonnes of straw.
- 3,312 sacks for the heads, 3,312 tops and 3,312 pairs of trousers.
