Description

This is stock. Please see my rules before using this image: [link]

So this is one of those modern "art" sculptures hanging around on the University of Calgary campus (I'm an engineering major... I don't care to debate what constitutes "art", I just prefer to mock it). You can push it and spin it around.

It's supposed to be good luck to give it a spin right before an exam... unless you are an engineering student. Legend has it that one engg student pushed it right before an exam, and then had the bright idea to try and stop it by sticking his arm in it. This thing may not look very big in person, but it is made of steel, and even at relatively low speeds, it generates a good amount of torque. He got out writing his exam, but bone stood no chance against steel.
