Man Nesting in a Rotterdam Tower

High on the Rotterdam Weena Tower, Benjamin Verdonck is nesting. Literally. Here's a strange art project called "the Great Swallow" involving a nest, a man, and a giant egg (yes, why do you think he's nesting?).

A nest is hanging high from the Rotterdam Weena Tower. Feathers fly around it. There's a man in the nest. He nested there only four days ago. He stretches his arms out wide open, as if he wants to fly. But it also seems like he is trying to stay upright (losing his feathers). Some people even think that the man wants to embrace them.

Here's the YouTube video clip:
