The town of Bethel, Maine, has beaten a nine-year record for the world's largest snowman - or more specifically - snow person.
The previous record was held by .... the town of Bethel Maine.
The 122ft and one inch creation, with eyelashes made from skis and painted red tyres for her lips, has been named after the state's senior Senator Olympia Snowe.
In a novel effort to recycle Christmas trees, the snowwoman's arms are two entire pine trees and she wears a six-foot snowflake pendant and a giant red hat.
She takes the crown of tallest snowperson from the previous incumbent, Angus, King of the mountain who brought the record to the US from Japan.

We were snowmobiling from Stow, ME into Bethel on Saturday, and the trail came out right in front of the amazing Olympia! Wow! She's incredible! The pics don't do her size justice. We could not believe our eyes!
Incredible! I found out about this from an email, and then Googled to find this site. I have linked it to my blog. Hope you don't mind. I wanted to share.
We have what we think is too much snow here in Seattle right now, but maybe not this much, and it would melt too fast here.
