Joel Waul, 27, poses for a photograph with the 8,200 pound rubber band ball that he created in the driveway of his home August 14, 2008 in Lauderhill, Florida. Once he is finished, Mr. Waul plans on submitting the ball to the Guinness World Records to try and break the record of the current largest rubber band ball in the record book. Waul's ball already is made up of more than 300,000 bands of different sizes and he plans on adding 2,000 more pounds once the material is delivered to his home.
