(CNN/WISH) — A British man has broken the Guinness record for stacking the most M&Ms.

The number may surprise you, but beating it is much harder than it appears.

Will Cutbill, who has a master’s degree in civil engineering, set a new record by stacking five M&Ms.

“When I tell ’em it’s a whopping 5, they’re shocked,” Cutbill said. “They want to give it a go, try to beat me. It’s harder than it looks.”
