RE: [TCML] Largest arc attainable?

Big Marx banks are better suited for this job than big tesla transformers.
I do not know what is the largest (longest)  artificial lightning man has
ever created but check this one out:

There is no  limit as concerns making even bigger sparks,except old good 
story about money limit issues.

Using existing systems - what kind of length could I expect to see, and where does such a system exist? So far, I can find Greg Leyh's Electrum, Bill Wysock's 13M and the Cauac Twin Coils, all of them seem to be able to produce an arc around 50ft in length. However, I read that Tesla himself was able to create artificial lightning arc in the order of 130ft - is this still the record?
