House-sized inflatable dog poo causes chaos at museum

A giant inflatable dog poo by American artist Paul McCarthy blew away from an exhibition in the garden of a Swiss museum, bringing down a power line and breaking a greenhouse window before it landed again, the museum said Monday.

The art work, titled Complex Shit, is the size of a house.

The wind carried it 200 metres from the Paul Klee Centre in Berne before it fell back to Earth in the grounds of a children's home, museum director Juri Steiner said.

The inflatable poo broke the window at the children's home when it blew away on the night of July 31, Mr Steiner said.

The art work has a safety system which normally makes it deflate when there is a storm, but this did not work when it blew away.

Mr Steiner said Mr McCarthy had not yet been contacted and the museum was not sure if Complex Shit would be put back on display.

That said quote is absolutely terrifying AND has left me giggling uncontrolably.

Unfortunately there are no photos of the inflatable poo in mid air but here's a pic of it anyway:

DUDE...i know what we can make...cough,cough... a giant inflatable turd.

It's what I do hun, it's what I do haha.

Oh I know, I guess if you take just about ANY household object and make it inflatable AND have it get loose and fly into a childrens center, then you can call it "art".

What's next?

can you imagine...sitting on your porch and a giant floating turd comes from over your house blocking out the sun "Independance Day" style? youd think we were being invaded...lol. well invaded by some pretty nasty aliens anyway.

well if thats the case i wish i could remember all the stuff i was talking about the other night when i was at my friends house lol. that would be a ton of art!!

The first thing I would think:

"There is no fucking way anyone is going to believe me when I tell them about this"

I wonder when it happened if anyone did exclaim Oh Shit!! or maybe they just said Oh well shit happens.

As for what's next, well anything now goes for art these days, so I am off to the toilet to produce another masterpiece.Bids now being taken LOL.
