More hair-raising than the original!

Internet people sure do love Lego. If only there were cats made of Lego.

There were a surprising number of angles in that. Even more than the original, which was cool. But I think Lego Felix should've landed on his feet.

I don't drink Red Bull so i'm not really interested in this sort of extreme legoing.

Is it to scale?

Or possibly: "Does it scale?"
