World’s Largest Puzzles

I encountered two “world’s largest” puzzle stories today. One was about a crossword, the other was about a jigsaw puzzle.

Through Crossword Puzzle Links, I found a place where you can buy the “World’s Largest Crossword Puzzle” according to the Guiness Book of World Records. According to the site:

Breaking the 1996 Guinness record, this crossword hangs on a full seven feet by seven feet of wall space and has 28,000 clues for over 91,000 squares.

The second story was a BBC story about a man who completed what “could be the world’s largest commercially available jigsaw.” The puzzle was 10 and a half feet long and 5 feet wide.
