A Biblical-sized Noah’s Ark? Could such a thing even exist? And who would build it? A Dutch man with a dream sets out to build a Noah’s Ark using the specs laid out in the Bible. His amazing creation is a stunning work of art.
14. A Grand Idea
The story of the modern Noah’s Ark started in 1993, when a Dutch man named Johan Huibers was reading his children a bedtime story about Noah’s Ark. He started to have a grand idea: building his own replica of the Ark. His wife thought this was a grandiose dream, saying by the time he finished it, maybe they “can all go on vacation to the moon.”
