The Mountain Giant

 

In the remote parts of the Waranga Mountain Range (in Australia) lives Fintin O'Tool, the famed "Waranga Mountain Giant". Fintin is now 124 years old, but since birth, hasn't stopped growing. In in this 1960 slide, he was 160 feet tall, but recent sighting suggest he is closer to 250 ft tall now. 

Alas, Aussie clothing manufacturers no longer think that making custom outsize clothing for him is worthwhile publicity, so that past decade of sighting have been of a nude Fintin.... his massive todger flopping about when he runs.

The Australian Wind Farm Conglomerate are looking to employ Fintin as a Wind Turbine maintenance technician.
