Man Spends 30 Years Creating a Model of Herod's Temple

Brick by brick, tiny figure by tiny figure, Alec Garrard has painstakingly worked for 30 years on an astonishing recreation of Herod's Temple. But despite spending all that time and effort the retired farmer believes he won't finish it in his lifetime as he keeps finding things to add to it. In contrast, legend has it that the original construction of the entire complex lasted only three years, although historians believe it took far longer.
