centennial light

this light bulb has tourist coming all over the world just to see it. ripley's believe or not has even featured it in one of its episode. this hand blown light bulb in livermore pleasanton fire department has been burning continuously for 106 years now (except for power failures and moving to a new station location 3 times), and its the longest working bulb in the world.



they have set up a webcam now to show its live footage every 10 seconds... chances are the camera is going to stop working before the light bulb.

you can check it out here.
