00:00:23,884 --> 00:00:25,964
Speaker 3: On the cutting room floor today, did just see the

5
00:00:26,044 --> 00:00:27,324
Speaker 3: story about this guy?

6
00:00:27,404 --> 00:00:30,844
Speaker 2: He's built a Lego project. Incredibly impressive.

7
00:00:31,204 --> 00:00:34,403
Speaker 3: He spent two hundred thousand dollars, but it's cost him

8
00:00:34,403 --> 00:00:38,844
Speaker 3: not just financially but personally. He's had two divorces because

9
00:00:38,884 --> 00:00:40,204
Speaker 3: of his obsession with Lego.

10
00:00:40,324 --> 00:00:43,004
Speaker 1: Describe the Lego project? What do you get for two

11
00:00:43,043 --> 00:00:43,964
Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars?

12
00:00:44,124 --> 00:00:47,444
Speaker 3: He's built a replica of the Star Wars Battle of Gionosis.

13
00:00:47,484 --> 00:00:49,004
Speaker 4: Oh my god, what's that?

14
00:00:49,204 --> 00:00:53,644
Speaker 2: Over fifteen foot long? And it is amazing.

15
00:00:53,684 --> 00:00:57,204
Speaker 3: It's got the clones being made, it's got everything in there,

16
00:00:57,244 --> 00:00:59,684
Speaker 3: and it's all proportionately correct and great.

17
00:01:00,644 --> 00:01:03,004
Speaker 4: So I'm just looking at this story here.

18
00:01:04,204 --> 00:01:08,084
Speaker 1: Two hundred thousand dollars yep, cost him his marriages, two marriages.

19
00:01:08,204 --> 00:01:11,203
Speaker 3: Yeah, marriages, go on down the train because he's love

20
00:01:12,044 --> 00:01:13,004
Speaker 3: of the little brick.

21
00:01:13,164 --> 00:01:17,844
Speaker 4: You know what, this story isn't real. I've just verified it.

22
00:01:18,404 --> 00:01:21,484
Speaker 1: What's weird is that this man has made this Lego

23
00:01:21,564 --> 00:01:23,644
Speaker 1: project and it cost him over two hundred thousand dollars.

24
00:01:23,804 --> 00:01:26,324
Speaker 1: The shock of this is it hasn't cost him his marriages. No,

25
00:01:26,404 --> 00:01:28,283
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's married. But this is one

26
00:01:28,284 --> 00:01:34,684
Speaker 1: of those made up stories. But weirdly, the real part

27
00:01:34,724 --> 00:01:36,924
Speaker 1: of it is real. He has spent two hundred thousand

28
00:01:36,964 --> 00:01:38,484
Speaker 1: dollars and made what did you call it?

29
00:01:38,524 --> 00:01:39,563
Speaker 4: The Star Wars? What is it?

30
00:01:39,604 --> 00:01:41,203
Speaker 2: The Battle of Gionosis?

31
00:01:41,684 --> 00:01:44,884
Speaker 1: Are you disappointed that his marriages haven't ended? I'm shocked

32
00:01:45,164 --> 00:01:46,764
Speaker 1: that he might still be in a relationships.

33
00:01:46,764 --> 00:01:48,484
Speaker 2: I looked at you, I looked at this story. But

34
00:01:48,644 --> 00:01:49,684
Speaker 2: he's got a girl.

35
00:01:49,964 --> 00:01:53,684
Speaker 4: Well, but you know you like train set.

36
00:01:53,764 --> 00:01:54,284
Speaker 2: I love trains.

37
00:01:54,324 --> 00:01:56,364
Speaker 1: If it was a two hundred thousand dollars train set

38
00:01:56,404 --> 00:01:59,044
Speaker 1: that was over fifteen feet long, you'd say, how brilliant.

39
00:01:59,204 --> 00:02:00,364
Speaker 4: So why is this nerdy?

40
00:02:00,364 --> 00:02:03,124
Speaker 2: And that's not train sets aren't nerdy?

41
00:02:03,204 --> 00:02:05,844
Speaker 4: Oh my god, are you joking? You and Rod Stewart,

42
00:02:06,204 --> 00:02:07,244
Speaker 4: he's obsessed with them.

43
00:02:07,444 --> 00:02:09,924
Speaker 2: He's got a great train set. He was on the

44
00:02:09,924 --> 00:02:12,684
Speaker 2: front of Train Modelers Monthly.

45
00:02:13,924 --> 00:02:15,284
Speaker 4: In the nude. It was a very good front.

46
00:02:15,804 --> 00:02:17,924
Speaker 2: I had a great train set. I had a really

47
00:02:17,923 --> 00:02:18,844
Speaker 2: good train set.

48
00:02:19,004 --> 00:02:20,883
Speaker 4: And what era did you have it? And what was

49
00:02:20,923 --> 00:02:21,364
Speaker 4: it made of?

50
00:02:21,444 --> 00:02:25,284
Speaker 2: I was young. It started off just with a layout,

51
00:02:25,483 --> 00:02:26,523
Speaker 2: the flat board and.

52
00:02:26,483 --> 00:02:27,803
Speaker 4: It was the old school one.

53
00:02:27,923 --> 00:02:29,883
Speaker 3: Yeah, the dad put together for me, and I just

54
00:02:29,923 --> 00:02:33,404
Speaker 3: had the trains going around. But then I discovered chicken

55
00:02:33,404 --> 00:02:34,284
Speaker 3: wire and plastra.

56
00:02:34,324 --> 00:02:36,004
Speaker 4: Apparents your love of a diorama.

57
00:02:36,284 --> 00:02:38,244
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it just and I started.

58
00:02:38,244 --> 00:02:40,724
Speaker 3: I made a mountain range, and then I started making

59
00:02:40,724 --> 00:02:43,203
Speaker 3: more mountain range. And then one day Dad said to me,

60
00:02:43,244 --> 00:02:47,043
Speaker 3: he said, you've got more mountain range than train. I'd

61
00:02:47,043 --> 00:02:49,404
Speaker 3: covered the whole had the alps. There was literally a

62
00:02:49,444 --> 00:02:52,963
Speaker 3: foot of train track left. Everything was just And then

63
00:02:53,284 --> 00:02:54,804
Speaker 3: one of the dad's mates came to look at it.

64
00:02:54,803 --> 00:02:56,604
Speaker 3: He said, that's impressive, but you have no idea what

65
00:02:56,724 --> 00:02:58,043
Speaker 3: train's in there. There could be anything.

66
00:02:58,124 --> 00:03:00,684
Speaker 1: Why didn't you make the mountain range beside the train

67
00:03:01,684 --> 00:03:02,284
Speaker 1: I had?

68
00:03:02,324 --> 00:03:04,083
Speaker 4: Why did the train have to be underneath it?

69
00:03:04,324 --> 00:03:06,163
Speaker 3: Because it's in a tunnel and I have the little

70
00:03:06,163 --> 00:03:08,644
Speaker 3: tunnel and I didn't extend the all to be in

71
00:03:08,644 --> 00:03:09,163
Speaker 3: the hanne.

72
00:03:10,004 --> 00:03:10,803
Speaker 2: What are your critic?

73
00:03:11,124 --> 00:03:15,364
Speaker 4: What you working for? Civil engineering? Big? Civil engineering got

74
00:03:15,363 --> 00:03:15,523
Speaker 4: to you.

75
00:03:16,124 --> 00:03:18,964
Speaker 3: I'm moving mountains. I'm putting mountains back on the track.

76
00:03:19,444 --> 00:03:21,124
Speaker 3: And then it all ended with my brother and I

77
00:03:21,124 --> 00:03:22,364
Speaker 3: had a huge punch up.

78
00:03:23,324 --> 00:03:24,884
Speaker 4: Every story ends with them.

79
00:03:24,964 --> 00:03:27,363
Speaker 2: And we both fell on top of the train set.

80
00:03:28,363 --> 00:03:31,204
Speaker 3: Dad came into the root and to separate us, and

81
00:03:31,244 --> 00:03:36,404
Speaker 3: he said it looked like Godzilla and some other Jeopanese

82
00:03:37,084 --> 00:03:41,764
Speaker 3: king mother wrestling each other on this giant trained layout.

83
00:03:42,004 --> 00:03:43,963
Speaker 3: And next it was out on the junkpile.

84
00:03:44,084 --> 00:03:46,804
Speaker 4: That would have been quite painful landing on that chicken wire.

85
00:03:46,764 --> 00:03:48,564
Speaker 2: And the plast for powers. Well, for my brother it

86
00:03:48,724 --> 00:03:50,644
Speaker 2: was yeah, what a.

87
00:03:50,604 --> 00:03:53,844
Speaker 1: Flex had to tell us that you won? I once

88
00:03:53,924 --> 00:03:58,363
Speaker 1: made he wrecked the train set. I once made a

89
00:03:58,363 --> 00:04:00,484
Speaker 1: a thing for art at school. You know the King

90
00:04:00,524 --> 00:04:02,644
Speaker 1: of Id that soon character the King is a think

91
00:04:02,924 --> 00:04:05,044
Speaker 1: I made a replica.

92
00:04:05,124 --> 00:04:07,724
Speaker 4: It was so lifelike it was frightening of the of

93
00:04:07,764 --> 00:04:08,644
Speaker 4: who the King of Id?

94
00:04:09,284 --> 00:04:12,444
Speaker 1: And so I made him chicken wire. I'm never good

95
00:04:12,444 --> 00:04:14,284
Speaker 1: at craft. I don't like craft.

96
00:04:15,204 --> 00:04:17,884
Speaker 2: You could have used to be gorchy bottle for those.

97
00:04:17,803 --> 00:04:19,884
Speaker 4: I wasn't smoking a bomb that He.

98
00:04:19,884 --> 00:04:21,164
Speaker 2: Used a small orchi bottle for that.

99
00:04:21,844 --> 00:04:23,284
Speaker 4: It was this big Look what I'm doing in my hands?

Speaker 4: big is that?

104
00:04:34,804 --> 00:04:37,324
Speaker 2: Okay? From the bench, right about two and a half.

105
00:04:37,404 --> 00:04:42,484
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it was big and so chicken wire, paper mache,

106
00:04:43,004 --> 00:04:48,484
Speaker 1: and for his hair, strands of yellow wool made the crown. Everything,

107
00:04:48,524 --> 00:04:51,363
Speaker 1: handed it in for school, came home. It's the way

108
00:04:51,404 --> 00:04:54,844
Speaker 1: I remember it. It wasn't long after came home from

109
00:04:54,924 --> 00:04:56,724
Speaker 1: school we had to skip out the front of our

110
00:04:56,724 --> 00:04:58,324
Speaker 1: house and that was right at the top of it.

111
00:04:58,444 --> 00:05:02,644
Speaker 1: Mumma chucked it out. She was very non sentimental with those.

112
00:05:03,044 --> 00:05:06,804
Speaker 3: That was my year twelve, major work pretty much pretty much.

113
00:05:06,884 --> 00:05:08,884
Speaker 2: And it's out on the skipping. Did anyone take it?

114
00:05:10,884 --> 00:05:13,044
Speaker 4: A in those days, no one stole from your skip

115
00:05:13,164 --> 00:05:14,444
Speaker 4: b Who would take that?

116
00:05:14,604 --> 00:05:16,363
