Gear  |  Other
A full-sized LEGO house is bulding in the UK. By James May, a toy fanatic from the UK, he is builting a real two-storey building, it will make from 816 million Lego bricks. And when the house is finished, James May vowed to live in it!
"This two-story Lego palace, which resides in the middle of a vineyard, sports a working bathroom, and is covered inside and out with bricks pieced together by 272 Legos. Over three million bricks were used to build the Lego pad, so doing some quick math here - that's over 816 million Lego pieces!"
He said: "I'm planning to stay there for two or three days, or until it falls down - whichever is sooner. I'm pretty relaxed about it, but will just have to be careful moving around.
"If I wake up buried under a pile of bricks I'll know it's gone wrong."

He co-presents Top Gear on the BBC and several other science themed shows, like the show this house is for.
