UAE hopes to bag five world record titles on its National Day.

The 49th national day celebrations have brought in some big surprises for the people of the United Arab Emirates with the latest announcement of the country smashing as many as five Guinness world records this time. 

The country already has a reputation as the most record breaking nation in the gulf region and with the current aim to grab five more such titles for its 49th National Day Celebrations, the nation is trying to expand its reach. 

This will take place as Guinness World Record will be witnessing three attempts by the Global Village that will be a part of the 25 world record planned to create this 25th anniversary as a popular attraction. 

One of such records that the Emirati nation is aiming to break is using the maximum number of flags to create the largest flag number ever to exist. Apart from this, the country will also come together to make the largest bottle cap sentence which will reportedly consist of 13,434 bottle caps. 

People will also be putting together the largest admission ticket mosaic. The current record stands at 50 square meters. Art is also not behind when it comes to world record as Yas Mall attempts to create the largest sand art structure. This will aim to break the current record of 266.2 kg that was set in 2012. 

The mall will be achieving this feat by creating a giant sand art bottle. Artists will be creating eye-catching, visually appealing sand art that will exhibit the themes of National Day celebration. It is said to be displayed on December 5 at the Town Square. 

But it is not only now that UAE is looking at creating such examples and being an inspiration for its citizens as earlier this week, the Indian International School in Sharjah smashed the world record of the largest video chain where people are passing flags to one another. The chain lasted for 10 hours, 14 minutes and 45 seconds. 

As of this day, the UAE has 434 active world records and it is also attempting for more. It has not only established itself as a record breaking nation but also believes in setting newere records. It has the fastest rate of setting records in the Middle East.
