Giants Causeway

About 50 million years ago, in what we now know as Northern Ireland. Fionn mac Cumhaill got into a fight with a Scottish fellow name Benandonner. Unfortunately, Fionn his rival was living on the other side of the sea, which complicated things.

Since Fionn is a giant and there were no ships for his size, there was only one thing left to do. Hurdle rocks into the sea in order to create a passage all the way to Scotland. And that's what Fionn did.

Once he finally made it to Scotland, Fionn discovered Benandonner was much larger than himself. Fionn rushed back to his homeland, but Benandonner was angered and the passage had already been made.

Without having much time, Fionn's wife disguised him as a baby and carried him around. Upon Benandonner his arrival he noticed the huge baby. If a baby is already of this size, he could not even imagine how big the dad must be.

Benandonner ran back to Scotland, as fast as he could. Along the way the bits of rock and mountain crumbled under his feet.

And thus Giant’s Causeway was created. A cobalt formation of 40.000 columns shaped in a strangly hexagonic resemblance. The strang formation makes it hard to believe it is not man made, thus the source for myths and legends.
