MILLIONAIRE JOHAN HUIBERS BUILDS NOAH’S ARK REPLICA (Video)

A Millionaire contractor and creationist named Johan Huibers has built a full-sized replica of Noah’s Ark in the Netherlands.

To get the measurements as close to the original Ark as possible, Johan Huibers turned to the Book of Genesis. The book of Genesis describes the Ark measurements as 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high. A cubit is supposed to be the distance of a man’s arm from the elbow to the fingertips, so Huibers used his own arm and his ark came to be around 450 feet long.

There are obviously some inconsistencies with Johan’s Ark when compared to Noah’s like, Johan used Swedish pine instead of the “gopher wood” but says that’s okay since, in the Bible, God told Noah to use a “resin wood.” It is also built around a steel frame.

Johan first got the idea to build the Ark 20 years ago when he had a dream that the Netherlands flooded like in the Old Testament. This full-sized Ark took 4 years to build and Johan used funds he made from the admissions to his smaller scaled Ark to pay for the building of this one. That’s right, there was another Ark he made as well.

Say what you will but that thing is pretty amazing.
