Aaron’s Inc., an Atlanta-based furniture chain, set a new Guinness World Records title in Maryland for the largest human mattress dominoes.

During the company’s annual manager’s meeting, 1,200 employees standing in front of mattresses lined up in 34 rows across 70,000 square feet of the Gaylord National Resort and Conference Center in National Harbor.

The impressive feat went down one-by-one without a hitch in 13 minutes and 38 seconds, breaking a previous record set by a German company in 2012.

Each of the record-breaking mattresses will be donated to charities in Washington, D.C., including youth homeless shelters and A Wider Circle, an organization working to end poverty.
