The previous Guinness world record for the Longest rubber band chain was 5,170 feet.

   "I did it for fun," she said. "I just started to tie them together. I looked up the record and figured it was short enough where I could beat it."

    Allison keeps the rubber bands wrapped around a large wooden stand her grandfather made for her.

   "I'll probably keep them until they start rotting and fall apart," she said.
