00:00If you ever wanted to join Ice Age characters Manny, Diego and sit on their adventures,
00:27then this could be your chance.
00:29Well, this is more of a photo opportunity really.
00:32If you look from the right spot, then this image becomes the perfect illusion.
00:36Street artist Edgar Maller, who created the scene, has done similar paintings before.
00:40But this one here is the biggest to date.
00:43A mammoth achievement, Edgar Maller has made it into the Guinness Book of World Records.
00:48His metamorphic Ice Age scene at the front gates of Westfield Shopping Centre measures a massive 318 square meters.
00:56It's 60 square meters bigger than my last record and I'm quite satisfied.
01:02We're always coming across the most amazing bits of art at Guinness World Records.
01:06Not only to do with the size, to be fair.
01:08We have much, much larger pavement art, but not anamorphic.
01:11It's the fact that this one is anamorphic, which means you can only see it from one central point of view.
01:17Which means it's technically much more difficult to create.
01:19Of course you can do a huge penalty by numbers if you want.
01:22That's going to be easy compared to this, which is much more technically difficult.
01:25So that's a great achievement, they should be very proud.
01:32The German artist even beat his own record, which took 6 days, 72 hours, 2 assistants, and litres of acrylic paint to complete.
01:48Done.
01:54After 3-4 days, I was thinking we don't make it in time, but as you know it's a working process getting better and we know what to do and so we did it right in time.
02:07Muller's world record coincides with the DVD and Blu-ray release of the third installment of the Ice Age franchise, Dawn of the Dinosaurs.
02:15Okay, Ellie, this is where I draw the line. You, Crash and Addie back to the village.
02:20Yeah.
02:21In the sequel, Diego, Manny and his heavily pregnant mate, Ellie, venture into dangerous dinosaur territory, where Sid has been taken to after trying to steal three dinosaur eggs.
02:31It's time to get buck wild.
02:37The film was a big success cashing in more than 400 million pounds worldwide and is expected to do just as well on the home entertainment market.
02:45Whatever caused Manny, Sid and Diego's forefathers to become extinct, it looks like this is the kind of Ice Age that's here to stay.
03:01The only one because you that it isÃll have passed on to 400 miles.
03:21I like the end of online ironically watching the Vikings.
