Minnesota Iceman

The Minnesota Iceman is a sideshow exhibit and elaborate hoax that depicts a fake man-like creature frozen in a block of ice. It was displayed at shopping malls, state fairs, and carnivals in the United States and Canada in the 1960s and early 1970s and promoted as the "missing link" between Modern man and Neanderthals. It was sold on eBay in 2013 and put on display in Austin, Texas.
