For 120 years, the Rubjerg Knude lighthouse has been perched on a sand dune on the northern Danish coast, but coastal erosion from North Sea winds threatened to topple it into the sea.

In attempts to save this tourist attraction, the 720-tonne figure was moved to a new location 15 metres away. The move took around two hours to complete.
