if you look carefully at the top of the ball, it appears to be suspended by a rope of some sort. considering that the ball with 14,000+ coats weighed 515lbs, I would imagine that this ball is quite heavy.

now lets do the math

if we make the assumption that this weinie put one coat on the ball per day, it would take him 49.315 years to do the 18000 coats

assuming TWO coats per day, that's 24.66 years worth of painting.

3 a day is 16.44 years.

any way you shake it, this guy has too much free time, and not much imagination.


ok....edit: I just noticed that he's been at it since 1977....that's 27 years, or 666 coats per year, or 1.82 coats a day, every day. how fucked up is that?
