Life-Size Titan Falls In Middle Of Berlin

Passengers at this Berlin train station would be forgiven for cloaking then running for the nearest doorway after seeing this as they emerged from their escalator ride.

Ever think to yourself, man, being mesmerized by a digital music visualizer is just too safe? Fixing that problem is easy: just add fire. Also, science.
