This is old news but in case you haven’t seen this video from Ashley Klinger (aka productsofhearts) have a look on the TV above. Ashley is a dance major at Point Park University and was on her way to an audition when she got stranded overnight at the airport during Snowmageddon 2010.

The epic battle between Askarus and Twolf of Angaron Dagorhir was captured in action by the Google Maps Street View team.
After further research, we realized it wasn’t a coincidental moment. It was an art project designed by two Carnegie Mellon students, Robin Hewlett and Ben Kinsley.
