The Smallest Snowman in the World

Here’s the smallest snowman in the world that looks like two scoops of ice scream and its size is only of one fifth of the width of a strand of hair!
This cute snowman was created by the British National Physical Laboratory using tools destined for manipulating nano-particles. They welded the snowman together out of two tiny tin beads using small deposits of platinum and a focused ion beam carved its eyes, smile and put in place its platinum nose.

Then it was magnified in a blue light and gave this image of almost a real snowman :)
