The Mantis is 40 feet tall and 30 feet wide and flames can be six stories high. The art piece was created by Kirk Jellum in 2010. He and his team of 20 people spent 500 hours designing the piece and 3,000 hours building the piece. Former Zappos CEO Tony Hsieh bought the piece in 2013 and it's been a staple of Downtown Las Vegas ever since. Hsieh also founded the Life Is Beautiful festival in 2013.
