Carnival Cruise Lines showed off to the entire world just how much fun they can have by shooting a commercial in Dallas, TX using 2 giant beach balls. The 3-story high beach balls were unleashed to a crowd below on the street at Pegasus Park on October 26, 2008.

John Heald, Carnival Cruise Lines’ Senior Cruise Director oversaw the Guinness World Record attempt.

Wow! That’s amazing!

But… imagine all the damage one little porcupine walking down the street could do to that beach ball…

I’m having a hard time accepting how slow that ball moves! I feel like it’s in slow motion. I just want to speed it up!

the people in the first clip are lame. if there was a 3 story beach ball falling down, i’d go bounce it instead of stand back and take videos.

I was there bouncing the balls. My friend made this video that I think captures the fun mood of the event:
