Creating art out of playing cards. Is this guy nuts?

Olympics Village model made by an expert card-stacker makes the Lego Olympics look just naff in comparison.

I mean, that model’s just a lot of plastic parts snapped together: This guy had to avoid shaky hands, sneezing and stepping incautiously for a whole 20 days while he put the card model together, detailing even the woven-girder shapes of the Bird’s Nest. Yup- that’s 20 days, 140,000 cards and 100% craziness.
