SEEING as Clive Palmer is
now unlikely to be building his
ambitious Titanic II cruise ship
project, somebody else has
stepped up to the plate and built
his own replica – albeit of Lego.
An immersing time-lapse video
has been released of a youngster
putting together a giant Lego kit
of the RMS Titanic, made out of
an eye-watering 30,000 pieces.
The video shows several
different bases built, comprising
decks of the ship, which were
then combined to form the
gigantic and lifelike replica.
Amusingly, the boy building
the model appears to grow
considerably larger all of a
sudden, suggesting the project
was completed over a long
period of time as he grew.
