    It's ok I guess. I have to agree with Jordy, it does actually look like a roller coaster. I don't think someone like Anish Kapoor should have been asked to do anything like this. There in my opinion would have been several other people who could have done a much better job. Someone like Norman Foster who is responsible for some of the more modern and instantly recognisable buildings in London (i.e. The Gherkin, Wembley Stadium, HSCB Tower (Docklands), Millennium Bridge, London Town Hall).

    Adding to what Dan said, the Skylon in London in my opinion is one serious ugly building now. This will end up being the same in years to come. They've already said that after the games they might demolish the whole site as it will be too costly to keep up so why the need for such stuff like this?

    It looks like a UFO which became tangled with what I can only describe as the secret love child of a rollercoaster and the eiffel tower. If this was the winning design I wonder what the losing designs looked likes.

    I think who ever is approving the visuals for the the Olympics obviously has a serious acid problem because what we are seeing can't be the same as what they are seeing. First the logo and then they approved this, what else?

    If I were the ceo of durex I would have a massive condom commissioned for this. Totally worth the massive fine but the marketing aspect would be amazing.

    Bonjour, la noirceur, mon vieil ami
    Je suis venu te reparler
    Car une vision piétinante doucement
    A laissé ses graines lorsque je dormais
    Et la vision
    Qui était plantée dans mon cerveau
    Demeure toujours
    Parmi le son du silence

    I'm pretty sure the image wasn't there when I read the article the first time.
