Bryan Berg, a trained architect who started breaking card stacking records in 1992, needed a ladder to complete his card tower, which he topped with his Honor Magic V3 phone for good measure.

Guinness World Records Adjudicator Thomas Bradford confirmed Berg, who did not use glue or any other form of extra support for his attempt, broke the record for the tallest house of cards in 8 hours.

Berg also holds the overall record for the tallest playing card structure, 25 feet and 9 inches, which has stood since 2007.
