Giant Person Lands In Netherlands
Updated: 08:17, Wednesday August 08, 2007

A giant Lego man has been fished out of the sea in the Netherlands.

The smiling effigy was spotted in the sea at the resort of Zandvoort.

Workers at a drinks stall rescued the 2.5 metre (8 foot) tall plastic character, which has a yellow head and blue torso.

They placed it on the sand, where holidaymakers quickly gathered round.

“We saw something bobbing about in the sea and we decided to take it out of the water,” said a stall worker.

“It was a life-sized Lego toy.”

More including video….

Perhaps it’s the long lost brother to this giant Lego Lakers player I snapped in the Bijenkorf department store on Dam square recently.

Been there, done that, bought the t-shirt, washed the t-shirt 23 times, threw the t-shirt in the ragbag, now I'm polishing furniture with it.

    Heh. I saw that. Reminds me of some art installations at Noordwijk-aan-zee this summer.

    Shouldn’t that be “no more real than you are?”
