That’s a Lot of Lint
Michigan is now the record holder of the world’s largest ball of dryer lint set on fire…
The Guinness World Record was set on Thursday at Dryer Vent Wizard in Farmington Hills.
The lint ball weighted around 650 pounds, there was no record before this, but it had to weigh at least 99 pounds.
Since April, Dryer Vent Wizard had its 95 franchisees collect as much lint as they could from clients’ homes for this world record.
The purpose of this is to raise awareness of the importance of getting your dryer vents cleaned because the lint is very flammable.
Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf!
Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio.
