How about build the world’s largest penny pyramid?
Comments
I remember this was posted before as it was in progress.
The builder is very determined and focussed.
Doesn’t make any cents 🥴
He who knows he has enough is rich.
Break a Coinstar machine.
But did he use copper pennies or zinc pennies?
Does the Book of Silly Records require that the pennies be of the same type?
The Mysterious Egyptian Magic Coin
Coins in Movies
Coins on Television
I like the way he used presumably circulated pennies for the darker design elements.

Are there secret passages, burial chambers, etc.?
Booby traps, robbers?

Too much time on his hands.
Do you think they are "unsearched"?
I doubt it.
All of the above are on Oak Island.

Crazy !!!
Whew!
If they stop making those Brute plastic pails, the Ferrari guy will probably have an OCD breakdown.
And, don't think for one minute that those Lithuanians are going to take this pyramid lying down.
I knew it would happen.
An amazing accomplishment.... though not something I would do... Too busy living and having fun.....Cheers, RickO
that's some serious dedication to do that, congrats to him for doing that, jmo
The funny part is, because of the quantity, he don't have $10k in legal tender. I think legal tender is only up to 50 cents. That punches holes in the theory that you could punish a debter you don't like by dumping a truck load of cents on his lawn. The debt would not be paid legally.
Manage your cents and the dollars will manage themselves.
no wonder i cant find any wheat pennys

Snopes fact check on paying with pennies
...partial quote:
"Up until the late 19th century, pennies and nickels weren’t legal tender at all. The Coinage Acts of 1873 and 1879 made them legal tender for debts up to 25 cents only, while the other fractional coins (dimes, quarters, and half dollars) were legal tender for amounts up to $10. This remained the law until the Coinage Act of 1965 specified that all U.S. coins are legal tender in any amount. However, even in cases where legal tender has been agreed to as a form of payment, private businesses are still free to specify which forms of legal tender they will accept. If a shop doesn’t want to take any currency larger than $20 bills, or they don’t want to take pennies at all, or they want to be paid in nothing but dimes, they’re entitled to do so (but, as mentioned earlier, they should specify their payment policies before entering into transactions with buyers). Businesses are free to accept or reject pennies as they see fit; no law specifies that pennies cease to be considered legal tender when proffered in quantities over a particular amount."

WOW!
If you have a truck with a hydraulic lift, or a forklift, I suppose you could get up at 3 AM, take a trash can full of pennies, and dump them on the front lawn of someone you don't like. Not recommending you do this, but if you did - and you disliked enough people - it would get rid of your pennies.
"Seu cabra da peste,
"Sou Mangueira......."
To a man with a fork lift every problem comes on a pallet.

Dang! That's a million cents. Have fun cashing them in some day.
Worry is the interest you pay on a debt you may not owe.
It's a hobby for him and presumably it was fun for him or he wouldn't have done it. How many years does the average life long avid golfer spend hitting a little white ball with a stick and chasing it around a golf course that he'll never get back?
