We visit one of the most impressive rock formations in the world, Giants Causeway.
Between 50 to 60 million years ago, a flood of lava oozed from fissures on the earth, when the molten rock cooled, it cracked into a series of columns. This ancient volcanic eruption created what we see here today, similar only to Fingals Cave on the Isle Of Staffa and the Devils Tower in Wyoming, USA.
There are over 40,000 hexagonal columns, varying in height from 15 to 36 feet.
All but one column has 6 sides, the mysterious key stone with it’s 8 sides is hidden somewhere amongst the rock.
Legend has it that this causeway was actually built by a giant named Finn MacCool, who was challenged to a fight by Scottish giant, Benandonner.
He began building the pathway to Scotland with stone columns, yet when he grew closer Finn realised Benandonner was much bigger than he thought, and he decided never to finish the causeway. He not only left a boot behind, a piece of land he had thrown at the Scottish giant, became what we know now as the Isle Of Man.
