Giant LEGO Boulder Chases Indiana Jones Down San Francisco Hill

These guys created a giant boulder made of LEGO blocks and had it chase their friend dressed as Indiana Jones down a steep street on Potrero Hill in San Francisco.

Giant Lego Ball

UPDATE 1: Several people are claiming that this was actually a viral video by Lucasfilm to promote the new Indiana Jones film and that the boulder was not made entirely of LEGO’s, but rather a styrofoam ball with LEGO’s on the outside. Does anyone know the people involved with producing this video so we can confirm any of this?

The video was posted by macattck2533 with the following description:

“We built a huge LEGO boulder and then made our friend dress up as Indy and run from it. Fun times!”

Normally people like to take credit for their work as well as giving credit to their crew, but so far I can’t find any information on who was behind this.

UPDATE 2: The San Francisco Citizen is investigating the origins of this viral video.

UPDATE 3: Boing Boing is now posting updates regarding this viral video.
