Giant snowballs… or tiny snowmen pieces.



This one resulted from a very peculiar natural phenomenon in 2016, which caused 11 miles of the Western Siberian coast off the Gulf of Ob to be covered in huge snowballs.

It all seems very nonsensical that snowballs would just wash up on the beach from the sea.

However, it occurred due to small pieces of ice forming in the water before being rolled together into big round balls by both the wind and waves.

More importantly (since safety always comes first), learn a trick for hoisting a heavy middle ball up into position without hurting your back, if you are working alone. These and more useful tips follow:
