Michael Williams spent 10 years designing and building a famous London landmark out of matchsticks, and now it's complete.
The 41-year-old created a complete replica of London's Tower Bridge out of 1.6 million matches. The road layer says he spent every evening after work crafting the 6 foot-long structure.
He had also covered it with 156 working lights, but that almost cost him his all his hard work as it was about to go up in flames: "My brother said he saw smoke coming out of it and I looked across, switched it off and decided to rip all the lights out."
The model may just be a much smaller replica, but it took two years longer to build than the real thing, which was built in the late 1800s.
