Can you recognize the image? The classic iconic 20th Century photograph of the "Tank Man" turned into large wall art, is a "Spongecore" style take on an image seen by hundreds of millions of people around the planet - an enduring act of one man's stance against the state during the events in Tiananmen Square in 1989.

Kyle MacDonald is the "One Red Paperclip" guy who came into internet fame with a 15-stage trade-up that began with a red paper clip and ended with a house in Canada.
