GERMANY (Web Desk) - A German movie theater broke two Guinness World Records with an IMAX screen measuring a whopping 8770.43 square feet.
The Traumplast Leonberg, a multiplex chain in Baden-Württemberg, installed an IMAX screen measuring 127.2 feet by 68.8 feet, setting the Guinness World Records for the largest permanent IMAX screen and the largest permanent cinema screen (overall).
