With Christmas fast approaching, beautiful trees and strings of decorative lights can be seen in decoration all across the world. However, David Neighbour Richards, the Guinness World Record – winner of 2011, surprised everybody by displaying half a million lights. In October he began the process of building this amazing 502,165 light display. His neighbours’ reaction was difficult to predict. Some were even furious. But since the lights go across David’s property, fortunately or unfortunately, there is not much they can do. And while David’s primary reason for creating this rather unusual and colourful display has a selfish motive, there is a bright side to it too. Thousands of people that visited his house helped raise $$72,000 for various children’s charities.

Перевод: С приближением Рождества по всему миру можно увидеть красивые деревья и гирлянды декоративных огней. Однако Дэвид Нейбор Ричардс, обладатель мирового рекорда Гиннесса 2011 года, удивил всех, выставив полмиллиона огней. В октябре он начал создавать эту удивительную световую композицию из 502 165 огней. Реакцию соседей было трудно предсказать. Некоторые даже пришли в ярость. Но поскольку огни проходят по территории Дэвида, к счастью или к несчастью, они мало что могут сделать. Хотя главная причина создания этой необычной и красочной композиции довольно эгоистична, у неё есть и светлая сторона: тысячи посетителей помогли собрать 72 000 долларов для различных детских благотворительных организаций.
