• What’s really hilarious about this place is that they couldn’t even fit half of everything… and some of the larger animals? They had to go with miniature figures.

    Actually reading the biblical account of Noah’s story is why it’s impossible to believe. It gives a fairly detailed measurement of the ark, and there ain’t no way it could have fit 2 of every animal on it with how relatively small it would have been.

      Yes. And this place started off using those measurments as a “real” ark. using “real” materials. they had to stop because the timber framing was too thick to hold it up, and the place was far to small for the planned exhibits inisde; so then rather than an actual “boat”, they turned it into a building.

      They also had massive code violations that had to get fixed.

      also, had problems with the boat falling apart.

      and I think there was some money problems…

      Oh. also, there’s those really, really bad movies with Hovind.

      like. there’s a lot to make fun of here.
