Jeremy Moody built the first Lego ship inside a bottle! To perform this stunt, the builder had to use pieces smaller than a 2X2 brick and improvised tools that ranged from bent coat hangars to chopsticks. Click on the picture below to read more about this amazing feat.
Not the first:

I meant the ship built inside a bottle. I’ll change the post to make it more clear.
Great pun!
I may have to try this…looks rather difficult. Do I foresee a new bandwagon? :D
Good choice of bottle.
I can’t believe it is real. the way the background and lighting is, I would think it was made in blender but nope its real :O
When someone posts “This is the first…” one has to expect earlier examples to surface. It’s presumptuous in a world where millions have been and are building with Lego. It would be nice to see posts stating “This is the first time /I have seen this/” instead.
And here I thought building in the bag was hard! Kudos, Jeremy!
@ Josh: I don’t think I would do it–it seems too finicky for my taste–but it seems like it could be fun. Pirate scene in a rum bottle?
@Brad – I think I’ll give it a whirl. If I find the right bottle, and if I come up with a decent design, and if I find the time, and if, if, if. ;)
We’ll see. But it does appeal to me.
Holy crap. That looks fantastic… I could never try doing that, but the result — for some reason — strikes me as being far more impressive than normal (Non-LEGO) ship-in-a-bottles. Those normally seem really dumb to me (My apologies), but making a LEGO ship inside of a bottle seems like such an insane and good-looking idea to me that I am staring at the result in awe.
