Last Christmas I decided to make a snowman ... in the pouring rain. 8 hours later, I had amassed 11'6" of snow into what is perhaps, one of the largest snowmen I've ever seen. This video is just a short collection of some of the photos we took of our giant... This beast was built in Peterborough, Ontario, December 2005.

  • yesterday me and my friends made a 14 foot snowman nothing but hands i have pics if anyone would like to see. next week were gonna attempt a 15 - 20 footer by hand

  • @AdeliahRock

    Share the pictures! Did you roll the snowman, or did you hand pack it from the start? Two very different approaches...

  • Cheater, no mechanics.

  • Using hydraulics to lift balls that were 4' in diameter is the only way to practically make this snowman in one day!

    However, in rolling, it was only "human power", using 2"x12" planks and various other objects to create levers.

    As a sidenote - it RAINED the entire day during construction, making these sections incredibly dense!

  • ive made sections bigger than that -.-

    but i could never lift em up top =D

  • The previous year I made a snowman about 9' and used ramps to get them on top. It was a lot of extra work. But the weight of these balls (a result of a day of raining during construction), would be too much for a practical ramp... hence the tractor ;)
