American stuntman Robert McDonald built a Viking ship from 15 million recycled popsicle sticks! The ship had a test run today on Netherlands’ IJsselmeer lake. McDonald hopes to take the 50-foot ship across the Atlantic. Link -via Fark

    Fantastic! Now all that is needed is the inevitable dark of night crash into a brightly colored sugary iceberg. Yum!

    From the article:

    McDonald, badly injured as a child in a gas explosion that killed the rest of his family, is still looking for donations to finance his Atlantic voyage, the proceeds of which will go to children in hospitals and in disaster zones. He has worked as a stuntman in 400 films.

    Wow - from childhood gas explosion to stuntman. It's a good thing my childhood propensity for poosplosion didn't lead to a career as a janitor.
