Wallpaper Want to See a Double-Decker Do Push-Ups?

As we all know Friday is the starting day for the London 2012 Olympic Games, with such a huge event taking place in our country we come to think of Britain and symbols of our great country; but when you think of British symbols I bet a 1957 double-decker bus doing push ups didn’t spring to mind did it?

The artist David Cerny created the push up bus to promote the Olympic Games, although I don’t think we needed any help with that. He took our iconic symbol of London and created an athlete out of it, which is quite impressive when you are working with a huge red double-decker bus!

The bus has officially been named the ‘London Boosted’ and along side performing push ups; it features a voice and video projections. The bus has been fitted with a recorded voice groaning as it performs each push up and videos projecting from the windows.

Two huge arms controlled by an electric engine were fitted onto the big red bus to make it move and perform push ups, then the voice was added and there you have it, our next Olympic athlete is born. The London Boosted can be seen outside of the Olympic House in Islington, we can imagine it is quite a sight, so get along there and have a look!

David Cerny is used to creating more controversial art than this, his previous works have caused a lot of anger across Europe, lets hope that this piece is well received. David wants to see how long the ‘athlete’ can keep exercising for; he hopes that the London Boosted can make it the whole three weeks.

Want to see the London Boosted work out right now? Take a look at this video showing off the athlete and David Cerny taking about his latest work.
