- ManUnitdFan, on 04/23/2009, -0/+8Having never sculpted anything but boobs out of sand before, I have no idea how this is judged. But I declare the Netherlands the winner based on coolness.
- Photar, on 04/23/2009, -3/+10I like the part with the sand sculptures.

- asgardshill, on 04/24/2009, -0/+5Some of these just cry out for a time-lapse documentary showing how they're constructed.
- gurudatt143, on 04/23/2009, -1/+5These sand sculpture is really interesting! Is just water and sand? how do they make it possible.
- miamicat, on 04/24/2009, -0/+4My brother always loved kicking my sand sculptures...dick.
- Spartan61, on 04/23/2009, -0/+3I've seen how they do these sculptures and its done by starting at the top, and going down. they have to know how everything is to be spaced out before they start as it is done is sections. its amazing how they get everything in perfect scale. marvelous
- antdude, on 04/24/2009, -0/+3http://www.sandsculpturefestival.com/ for the festival's Web site.
- sugablonde, on 04/24/2009, -1/+4They did a pretty sandtastic job if you ask me!
- u8myfoood, on 04/24/2009, -0/+3I believe most of the time they are allowed to mix in a small amount of cement mix so that the structure can maintain it's shape otherwise a slight breeze may ruin the minor details all over the pieces
- lsatkins, on 04/24/2009, -0/+3What is...Suck it Trebek.
- MattM0914, on 04/24/2009, -0/+3Haha.... I was just thinking how cool it would be to be a kid and just destroy one of those. But then again, I was always the dick who loved kicking down other kids' sandcastles.
- mpn401, on 04/24/2009, -0/+3AAACHOO! (sniff)

- BrokenVisage, on 04/23/2009, -1/+3sand... Sand.... SAND!!! *doo-dooooo*
- skeetshot, on 04/23/2009, -0/+2If I was in charge, Canada would have had a sculpture of a smoking hot chick holding like a huge ***** laser cannon standing on a cliff, just protecting. Her hair would be flowing and the background would be punctuated with stars and planets.
- Tuttlebat, on 04/24/2009, -1/+3Mirror, if needed:

- Psicho, on 04/24/2009, -0/+2Russia - The dude in chainmail should be a Bogatyr (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogatyr). Not sure what that icon-like triptych on the back is, though.
- Squaker, on 04/27/2009, -0/+2This is nuts.

^ the other side of it - robwhite1979, on 04/24/2009, -0/+2I've always wondered how they make the sand stick together so well to make these... I know I could just google it, but there is something about the mystique that I'm just not ready to give up :)
- Squaker, on 04/27/2009, -0/+2Har har hoo har. It's the TGIF comedy hour!
- dixhuit, on 04/29/2009, -0/+2Not only are they all amazing efforts but most of them are proper bonkers too.

- robwhite1979, on 04/24/2009, -0/+2Thanks ColinsvilleMD for not explaining... I'm still disappointed about the "Cadbury secret" getting out (does anyone else remember those commercials??).
- MikeyBillz, on 04/24/2009, -0/+2I went to the sand sculpture festival in Portugal last year...it was sweet. The theme was "hollywood". it's pretty amazing what they can do with sand. All my sand sculptures look like shyte...
