During Memorial Day Weekend, many people gathered in backyards to kick off cookout season across the country — but in Denver, some visited an unassuming backyard to witness an attempt to shatter the world record for tallest stack of waffles, which was previously at 51 cm.
Journalist Elizabeth Hernandez was on the scene to cover the event for The Denver Postand thankfully, she live tweeted the action for all of us as it was going down on Saturday.

Spencer McCullough was the 23-year-old mastermind behind the challenge, and in her thread, Hernandez introduced him. She also went on to reveal that at the site were plenty of family and friends to help execute McCullough's vision, along with an official Denver land surveyor — with a 3D measuring device.

Turns out there are very strict rules around how waffles must be stacked in order to beat the previous record, and equally strict rules on exactly what makes up an appropriately competitive waffle.
"Spencer McCullough, waffle wunderkind, said when he started embarking on his waffle stacking journey, he received a 40 page PDF from Guinness defining what a waffle was," Hernandez explained. "They are using about 50 pounds of mix to make their dreams come true."
In order to get them to stack properly, the waffles were broiled until they hardened.
