Huge 80ft penis on baseball field is visible from space
An enormous penis has been spotted on a baseball field in the US.
The 80ft by 50ft knob was seen on the grass at Cochen Harry Ballfield in McDonough, Georgia.
The penis is so large it was picked up by a satellite and is visible on Google Maps.
The member, which was discovered by James Barnes, is 188 times larger than the average erect penis, which is comparatively tiny 13cm.
How the phallus ended up there is anyone's guess.
The grass appears to be worn away, revealing the soil in the shape of the male appendage only a few feet away from several hotels.
Metro can reveal that the baseball artwork appeared on Google Earth in 2022, but it seems to no longer be there now.
Google Earth images from 2023 and 2024 shows the field is back to all green, with no penis in sight.
Google users even made it a five-star tourist attraction, with one reviewer saying: 'Great place to just kick back and take a load off.'
Another added: 'It is nice, but would look bigger if they trimmed the hedges.'
Whoever is behind the cheeky stunt has just one-upped a German school for penis size. More Trending
A 20m long phallic drawing was seemingly painted on top of the Waldorf School in the Kreuzberg district in Berlin in February.
The white appendage even had the edges painted over in a not-so-discreet attempt to conceal the crude artwork.
Metro revealed that satellite images showed the penis appeared sometime between March and July 2022.

Napoleonic prisoner of war camp buried under field bought from farmer
Norman Cross, the world's first purpose-built prisoner of war camp, was privately owned by a farmer, and has been bought by Nene Park Trust. Located near Peterborough, it contains the remains of around 1,770 French, Dutch and German soldiers captured in the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars fought between the French and other European nations. The trust says it wants to preserve the site and make it available to the public as a historic and green space. The camp now lies barely visible under a field used for arable crops and grazing. But it previously held a self-contained town, with barracks, offices, a hospital, school, marketplace and banking system, according to historian Paul Chamberlain. It operated from 1797 to 1814 and housed around 7,000 French prisoners. The location was chosen because it was far from the sea, making it difficult for any escapees to return to France. Prisoners made intricate models from bone, wood and straw to sell at the camp market and trade for food, tobacco and wine. Around 800 of these artefacts, which include miniature ships and chateaus, are on display at the nearby Peterborough Museum and Art Gallery. The trust received £200,000 of grant funding from Historic England and £50,000 from the National Lottery Heritage Fund to buy the camp following years of negotiations. Its acquisition was fought for by resident Derek Lopez, who owned the Norman Cross Gallery near Yaxley and was an advocate of Peterborough's history. He died last year before seeing the sale complete. Duncan Wilson, chief executive of Historic England, said: 'The Norman Cross prisoner of war camp represents a pivotal moment in our shared European heritage that deserves to be better known.' Matthew Bradbury, chief executive of Nene Park Trust, said he was 'delighted' to take on the ownership of Norman Cross and wanted 'to share its green space and unique stories for generations to come'. Heritage minister Baroness Twycross said: 'Norman Cross represents a poignant chapter in our shared European story. 'The remarkable stories of those held in what was the first purpose-built prisoner of war camp should be remembered now and in the future. 'This partnership has secured this valuable heritage site for generations to come.'
