"My Lego WTC was built before the terrorist attacks. It was 5.5 feet tall (2 meters), and contained over 12,500 pieces. It was accidentally knocked over by a friend in April 2001."

Oh, boy. I bet the wtc attacks felt sincerely ironic to them.

Hope he counts bricks better than he converts.

The dedication to building these is amazing. Baffling (to me), but amazing.
