Tonight's Video of the Day is a piece of art that is the size of 46 football fields.
And it's found in the cornfields in Germany.
The project began in October when the artists sowed the corn seeds and watched their "work of art" blossom.

The artists started cutting their way to completion three weeks ago.. using power saws and tractors to cut the corn.
The corn rows will open tomorrow and visitors will allowed to take a walk through the fields.
