World Record

On May 7th 2022 in Guernsey, Chloe and Stuart Ferguson achieved the record for the Worlds Largest Soap Bubble Net at 28.635 square metres. 

Chloe makes her own bubble equipment and upon seeing the previous record, she knew she would be able to achieve it...so she did!

Planning didn't take long as she just made sure she was following the set guidelines. She wanted the net to be the length of her open plan living/dining room. Altogether, the process took around 36 hours to complete over the space of several months. She explains that the net making process was relatively easy as she already knew how to make them. The issue was finding poles that could hold the sheer weight and to actually be tall enough to lift the net off the ground.

On the day of the day attempt, the weather was quite windy which made it harder to show that the bubble net was functional. It took a few attempts and in hindsight, she would choose different poles and create a platform so she was higher off the ground. Chloe had moral support from her husband throughout the process. She also had the help of Marquis Surveys who she says were lovely and offered surveying which is difficult to find coming from such a small island.
