World´s Largest Mezuzah
(IsraelNN.com) It appears Jerusalem Judaica artist and scribe Avraham Hersh Borshevsky, 33, has the world's largest mezuzah. The mezuzah was presented at an international fair earlier this week and was recorded in the Guinness "Book of World Records".
The mezuzah parchment scroll measures 1.10 meters in length (1.2 yards) and weighs three kilograms (6.5 lbs.). It is encased in a wood, gold and glass covering, giving an appearance, some say, of a vertical aquarium.
Now, Borshevsky just needs to find a door to attach it to.
