Alas, the iceberg lacked staying power: Pretty photographed the 30-foot (9.1 meter) phallic structure on Thursday, April 27. It collapsed the next day.
This is 100% true, most of my family lives nearby there. It was quite exciting that the neighbouring town was getting so much attention! Small town Newfoundland never gets mentioned in the news outside of local publications, so it was quite cool. It did lead to a huge spike in tourism which some people have differing opinions on, however.
