World’s Longest Marble Run Jump to be Attempted in Santa Monica, Participants Welcome

A Marble Run Jump Involves a Marble Run Track Designed to Launch Marbles Into the Air for a Significant Distance

The public is welcome to participate as the world’s longest marble run jump is set to be attempted on Saturday, August 10, at the Third Street Promenade. The event, scheduled from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., will take place in front of the Santa Monica Art Museum.

A marble run jump involves a marble run track designed to launch marbles into the air for a significant distance. Typically, a marble run consists of a series of tracks, ramps, and obstacles that guide a marble from start to finish. In a marble run jump, the focus is on creating a specific section of the track where the marble is propelled into the air, aiming to achieve a record-breaking distance or height before landing back on the track or in a designated area.
