Legos And The Third Reich

Here is something I bet you never noticed. If you take two sets of lego man legs and position them just right, they form a swastika. To illustrate this I will use four legs that I have modeled in Rhinoceros 3D and arrange them in a way that is doable with real sets of legs.

A) Two incomplete lego models to be used in this demonstration.

B) Anatomically correct legs arranged in front view.

C) Side view of figure B displaying swastika.*

Now, is this just a coincidence, or a hidden meaning about Legos? You can make that decision next time your kid is assembling a little car made out of legos.
