How many Lego bricks…..?

Ignore the conceit your eyes are conjuring on your synapses: this is not a real Ford Explorer.

 

lego

 

No,this is a replica Explorer, built using 380,000 bricks by 22 of Ford's Chicago Assembly Plant workers. These workers laboured for around 2,500 hours - presumably not in one go - to build this 1200kg behemoth, which will find a home at the new Legoland park in Florida.

Supporting the knobbly shell is a 356kg interior aluminium base with a metal support, and now completed, the full size replica will be loaded onto a trailer with transparent sides en route to Florida, to allow other road users to bask in its brick-based magnificence.

For non-Americans, the real, four-wheel-drive Explorer is a full-size seven seat SUV. This Lego version is not four-wheel-drive, nor can it seat seven. And while the real version gets a V6, Ford tells us this one is "powered by imagination". OK, we imagine a supercharged 5.4-litre V8 from the old GT...

QI game by Paul Lamond

According to The Bible what came first the chicken or the egg?  Be careful with your answer.  Get it right and you move forward but a wrong answer could mean the dreaded klaxon and you'll be going backwards.

The answer to this and hundreds of other obscure and fascinating facts can be found in this hilarious board game based on the QI television programme.  This board game is based on the highly successful BBC Quiz show hosted by Stephen Fry.

QI has been a favourite among TV viewers since the show began in 2008. QI is arguably the hardest panel game in the world and is built on the philosophy that everything in the world is quite interesting, provided it's looked at in the right way.  This high quality board game is designed for anyone who loves the show.  Now you can take part in the challenging questions, while also having fun with family or friends.  For 2 - 6 players, ages 8 and up.
