About This Challenge

Challenge Rules

  • You must use commercially available matches or matchsticks, measuring no more than 50mm in length.
  • You must use only one hand, with the other remaining behind your back at all times. Your stacking hand must be flat on the table at the start of the attempt.
  • You may not use any water, glue or other adhesives to stick the matchsticks together, nor may you use any wires or other structure to keep the dice standing.
  • The matchsticks should be stacked one by one into a tower, with each level consisting of two matches placed parallel to one another, at right-angles to the matches on the previous level. You must only pick up one matchstick at a time.
  • Once completed, the tower must remain standing for 5 seconds for your attempt to be valid.
  • Only completed levels of the tower will be counted towards your score - IE: your score will be an even number.
