A giant "LEGO" man has been washed up on a Dutch beach but no one knows where it came from or what it is.

Workers at a drinks stall fished the giant, smiling "LEGO" man from the sea in the Dutch resort of Zandvoort.

They dragged the 2.5-metre (8-foot) tall model with a yellow head and blue torso from the sea and placed it in the sand, where crowds quickly gathered around it.
