IS THE WORLD'S LARGEST WHEEL UNBEATABLE?

Would you believe that the Guinness World Record for 'World's largest Catherine wheel', has gone unbeaten for one full decade?

The fireworks display business is a competitive industry, and firework related records are constantly being both rivalled and bettered.

We wrote a blog post discussing the Earth's largest wheel a staggering 10 years ago, yet would have never guessed that after such a lengthy period of time the blog would still be accurate to this very day.

To create a giant wheel that must rotate under its own propulsion is no mean feat, and to even attempt to do so requires a vast amount of planning, preparation, money and time. Over the course of a decade no other wheel has come close to matching the gigantic proportions of that successfully fired in Mqabba, a small town in southern Malta, and none look to do so in the near future.

To win a World record is one thing, to hold an unbeatable achievement is quite another!
