The Card Man: Amazing!

Bryan Berg is a professional “card
stacker” who builds houses of cards on a very large scale.
Trained as an architect, Bryan Berg is the
only known person to make a living building structures with  
freestanding playing cards.

He uses no tape, glue, or tricks, and his method has been  tested to support 660 lbs. per square foot.

Berg has stacked cards for corporate special events, public  relations campaigns, and science and children’s museums  in many cities in the  U.S.,  Canada, Europe, and  Asia.

Berg’s clients have included Walt Disney World, a Lexus  commercial, Procter & Gamble, American major league  baseball and hockey, and the San Francisco Opera among  others.

He also participated in a music video by The Bravery,  playing a lonely man who builds a fantasy world out of cards.

In 2004, Guinness created a record category for World’s  Largest House of Freestanding Playing Cards to recognize  a project Berg built for Walt Disney World, a replica of  Cinderella’s Castle.

In 2010, the record was renewed by himself using 4051  sets of cards, over 218,000 cards, and built in 44 days,a replica of the Venetian Macao.
