It sounds like an idea for a Disney movie, but it's real-life. Samsung got together with regional carrier Cricket to produce a gigantic, in-scale version of the Messager cellphone. The only problem is it has a 2.5mm audio jack. Just kidding. Actually, this working replica is made from wood, plastic and lights. We've seen bulky handsets that would bulge out your jeans, but we can't imagine where this model would fit. Believe it or not, there is a point to building this and that is to get publicity and also to get into the Guinness Book of World Records. You can see the video of the handset making calls and texting by clicking on the source link. Now how many people does it take to do a battery pull?
