Man Creates Giant Snow Tribute To Steve Irwin


<snip>

Can you guess who it is yet? No? Take a closer look. Any idea? Still can't figure it out? Erm... neither could we!

But apparently this is an ice sculpture of croodile hunter Steve Irwin, which has been completed by a US 'artist' (strength of vision unknown).

Stephen Garcia, 41, has been working on the piece outside his home near Grand Rapids in Michigan for the past month.

He's had to race against the thaw kicking in as spring emerges, in an attempt to complete the sculpture.

Irwin tragically died last September after his chest was pierced by a stingray spine while he was snorkelling at the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.
