A Viking Manx Giant 'King Orry' now stands tall in the U.S.
Aaron Kewish - who lives in Galva, Illinois - brought the giant back to his hometown from Arkansas and spent the winter restoring it.
The giant is now on display like many of the other famous muffler men throughout the USA.
'King Orry' has the Island's triscalion on his shield and Aaron says he is dedicated to 'all the Manx people that came to Illinois, including his great grandather Robert Kewish'.
