To unveil the new 2018 Land Rover Discovery, the English automaker put on one one heck of a stunt. Together with Bear Grylls, Sir Ben Ainslie, Zara Phillips and 5,805,846 LEGO bricks, the new Discovery was unveiled in a fashion unlike any other.
Crafted by the United Kingdom’s only LEGO Certified Professional, a job which many of us should be jealous of, the structure was modeled after the Tower Bridge. The multi-million LEGO brick structure beats out the previous record holder, which was crafted with 470,646 pieces. You can view the video of the event directly below.
