A British tech content creator of Indian origin has set a Guinness World Record with the largest replica of the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

Arun Rupesh Maini, known as ‘Mrwhosetheboss,’ achieved this remarkable feat by creating the impressive 6.74-foot tall iPhone model replica.

Maini, celebrated for his insightful tech reviews, teamed up with Matthew Perks, the mastermind behind DIYPerks, to bring this ambitious project to life. Together, they constructed a fully functional, larger-than-life replica of Apple ’s flagship smartphone.

Maini told Guinness World Records that, “It feels like a full circle moment. I’m incredibly proud of both our team and Matt for accomplishing something that’s never been done before. Growing up, I’d lose myself in Guinness World Records books, so to now hold one myself feels absolutely surreal.”

Maini, who began uploading tech content on YouTube in 2011, has built a massive following, known for his comprehensive reviews and innovative tech experiments. This giant iPhone was created to celebrate a major milestone in his career – surpassing Apple ’s official YouTube channel in subscribers. His collaborator, Matthew Perks, is known for creating supersized or miniature versions of gadgets, and this project was no exception to his creativity.
