Lego Boulder Chasing Indiana Jones?


Because I'm not going to be able to get out my Boundary Waters recap today (sorry, I'm currently working on the draft), here's a guy being chased by 5 million Lego's!

Yea, in honor of the upcoming Indiana Jones movie, some guys in San Francisco created a life-sized "Raiders of the Lost Ark" boulder outta Lego's and sent it tumbling down a street. They even dressed up (kinda) as characters from the saga. Of course there's Indiana Jones being "chased" by the tumbling Lego's, you've got Sallah, Marcus Brody, and even the Indiana Jones theme song!

That said, don't get your hopes too high as the ending isn't as disasterous as I was hoping but it's still fun. Enjoy.

Yea who knows. I hope it didn't damage anything. And if it did, the guys compensated for it.

The same site I originally found the video on, there are pictures which show the "boulder" a little closer and it appears to have a styrofoam core with the Lego's only on the outside.

Useless info. ;)

Yeah, I just recently saw a MythBusters that "Busted" the big lego ball. Literally. The ball shattered after just a few seconds.
