Bryan Berg has degrees in architecture and a background in structural engineering. Surprisingly, he seems to spend most of his time stacking playing cards. He currently holds the Guinness World Records for tallest house of cards and largest house of cards. And for the next few days heโ€™ll be at Horseshoe Casino Baltimore replicating Baltimore and D.C. landmarks.

Heโ€™s building playing-card versions of Oriole Park, M&T Bank Stadium, Baltimoreโ€™s Washington Monument, the National Aquarium, and the Bank of America Building.

Hereโ€™s Berg talking about his obsessive profession in 2012:
