Creating the world's largest, entirely man-made underwater city off the island of Cayman Brac isn't an easy, overnight project. Just ask Foots, the artist building The Lost City of Atlantis from scratch.

Recently, he sent me some photos that show how he's assembling Atlantis. The photos are all topside, but they clearly demonstrate the amount of work involved in this unusual project.

As we mentioned, Foots casts all the sculptures at home and then has to transport them to the beach. He can't carry them on his bicycle; he uses a truck to haul them there.

Imagine seeing this go down the road.

Of course, once the trailer reaches the beach, the concrete sculptures must be offloaded.

You can't just throw dozens of life-sized concrete sculptures anywhere; you need to place them neatly, until you can move them to the water.

After a full day of trailering and offloading, Foots has nearly 20 sculptures ready to be placed underwater.

And when they're there, they're going to look so cool!
