Dad of the Day: Scratch That, Dad of the Year Builds the Ultimate Star Wars-Inspired Fort

Some dads really love their kids, and others build their kids a AT-AT fort.

Colin Furze, a YouTuber known for his massive projects, decided to be the latter. This isn’t your typical box fort. This is a heavy-duty construction projecting, creating a gigantic AT-AT to scale. Hey, it’s easy to show up for your daughter’s soccer game, it’s a whole other thing to build her an Imperial Death Machine to play in. And some dad’s never show up at all…

Furze documented the whole thing on YouTube and Twitter, so if there are any dads out there who want to make up for, I don’t know, missing their child’s big game… Never mind. Everything’s fine.

He premiered this 18-foot AT-AT on his YouTube page, and the results are amazing. The insides are stocked with Nerf guns, Star Wars merch, tons of flashing lights, gaming console, and controls to move the head. Yeah, the head moves. This dude must really like his kids.
