Doomsday Dream Prompts Dutch Man to Build Huge Noah’s Ark
Share:
A doomsday dream of massive flooding prompted a Dutch man to build a modern-day Noah’s Ark that is 100 yards long and four stories tall.
Johan Huibers, head of a construction company in Dordrecht, Holland, said he started work on the mega-ship three years ago. Now nearly complete, the ark has gone from an Armageddon escape vehicle to a major tourist attraction.
“I dreamed that a part of Holland was flooded,” Huibers explained in a Today show segment. “The next day, I get the idea to build an ark.”
The ark, which Huibers insists is seaworthy, sits in a shipyard. It is identical in size to the one the Bible says Noah built, 300 cubits in length, 30 cubits high, and 50 cubits wide. {eoa}
