China: DIY Ark Cost $160K
Sixty-five feet long, and weighing 80 tons when it is completed, this is a truly home made ark, in the tradition of Noah. It might not be much to look at, but if it floats in a 2012 apocalyptic flood, it could just save the life of Lu Zhenghai.
Sadly, after two years of working on it, and with the Dec 21 doomsday just a few weeks away, the ark is not finished.
Lu Zhenghai lives in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region in northwest China. Looks like he took the 2012 movie literally – the impossible idea of a tsunami flooding the Himalayas – so I’m sure he won’t be needing it!
