A Pink Floyd Look Back At Loose Flying Pig

Here's a fun bit of Pink Floyd trivia for you...on December 3rd in 1976 a 40-foot inflatable pig was put up in the sky and photographed at Battersea Power Station outside of London.  Why? It was all for the album cover of Pink Floyd's "Animals" album.

By the way, as pigs are want to do, the inflatable pig broke free of its bonds, drifted eastward, reaching a height of 18,000 feet and then eventually landed in Kent. Below is the end product in the form of the "Animals" Pink Floyd album cover.

Imagine seeing a giant inflatable pig loose in the sky?  What crazy thoughts would enter your mind?
